Little Red Houses

Another Christmas card today -  using a lovely stamp set from Waltzingmouse called Alpine Christmas.
A simple design using Festive Berries Distress Ink and white card stock.  I love this little village nestled beneath the giant Alps -  The alps is one stamp, the cluster of houses is another stamp and the trees are another stamp in the set - so it's easy to ink them in different colors, but today I used just red.   I used a Lil Inker Design Stitched Mat Rectangle to cut out the images and layered it over the card base with foam dots.  I scattered 3 sequins around the card and stamped the sentiment at the bottom.
My card was inspired by this week's Merry Monday Challenge - create a card with a house on it.
I'm getting this in just under the wire!   Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Stamps:  Alpine Christmas - Waltzingmouse
Paper:  White - PTI
Ink:  Festive Berries - Ranger Distress
Accessories:  Stitched Mat Rectangle Dies - Lil Inker Designs, Sugar Blend Sequins - Avery Elle.
