Love the look of red, white & black!! Merry Christmas to you and Happy 2011!! :)
Oh, I love butterflies and this is a great card.!
My favorite Christmas song is silent night. I love the card- black, white and red go so nicely together.
Wow the stitching really adds that extra something to this card - very striking colour combination. Merry Christmas
Striking color combination! Fabulous card. My favorite Christmas song is "Oh Holy Night".
Very pretty card!! I LOVE butterflies, so this just speaks to my heart! My favorite Christmas song is "Silent Night, Holy Night".
Beautiful card Tiffany! I love how the red makes it pop. My favorite Christmas song right now is "I'll Be Home for Christmas". My family has been living overseas for the last five Christmases and I definitely feel that song to my core.
Happy Birthday to Kaitlyn and thanks for sharing her card. Lovely. Might have to CASE that for my brother in law who has a birthday next week.
Favorite Christmas song is tough there are so many. This year seems to be "Mary did you Know" though of course I sing selections from Handel's Messiah all year round and Christmas Carols too.
Favorite Carol is probably "Angels We have Heard on High". Love singing that Gloria in the shower! LOL!
Merry Christmas and many blessings!
Love the color combination and I love all kinds of butterflies. My favorite Christmas song is Silent Night.
Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy 2011

Love the card, Tiffany -- the contrast with the red and black is amazing and the houndstooth background is perfect! My favorite Christmas song is Angels We Have Heard on High -- love those gloria's! Merry Christmas, Tiffany! Blessings, Gretchen
Classic color combo, love it!
Black/white/red--great color combo. Happy Birthday to your daughter and Merry Christmas!
It's not easy choosing a favorite holiday song. I think I'll have to say 'It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas.'
Wow! I love those colors! Wonderful job! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous card and it is one I would love to CASE at some stage. It is so striking in those colours!
My all time favourite Christmas song is "Silent Night". I never tire of listening to it.
Beautiful card! My favorite Christmas song is a toss up between Oh Holy Night and Away in a Manger
My favorite Christmas song is I Heard the Bells on Chirstmas Day. The song is based on a poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. He wrote it on Christmas Day in 1864 after his wife died and his son was injured in the Civil War. I like the Casting Crowns version best. There is an awesome youtube video. What a powerful message of hope and love - Merry Christmas.
Love the color combo and the banner. What a nice birthday card that anyone would be proud to get.
I love the colors you put together on this card. Very striking. My favorite holiday song is Silver Bells. I just love singing it. Thanks for a chance at some wonderful candy.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I participate in the Stamping 411 challenges as much as I can, and I am always amazed at the creativity! WOW! Glad to hear that you are spending time with family during this wonderful holiday season. My all-time favorite Christmas song, hands down, is Jingle Bells. Its catchy, fast paced, easy to learn, fun to clean the house to, and my granddaughter knows the words, so we sing it together.
Thank you for the opportunity to win some beautifully hand-made blog candy. Merry Christmas
My favorite song...well that's a toughie. I love 'em all, but the one that gives me chills every time I hear it is The Hallelujah Chorus.
Your card is absolutely stunning!! What a fabulous take on the sketch. I am so inspired to give it a try! Have a very Merry Christmas.
Linda
I for one love this card - I may just stamp-lift it! I love the colors red and black - very elegant.
As for my favorite holiday song.. hmm I LOVE Them all - I would listen 12 months of the year if my family would let me - but if I have to pick one - perhaps Silent NIght or Oh HOly Night - OR White Christmas. Ok - so favorite 3!
My favorite Christmas song is Silent Night. I love classics!
WOW....A favorite? I like them all...but this year "The Holly and The Ivy" has become a new, best favorite. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Merry Christmas and may you have a bountiful New Year. My favorite Christmas song is Blue Christmas sung by Elvis. I am a die hard Elvis lover, and Blue Christmas I feel he is singing directly to me........yeah in my dreams.
Thanks for all you do all year long.

Love the card. I have so many favorite songs, but I love singing, "It's the most wonderful time of the year."
I would have to say that my favorite Christmas song is a tie between Joy to the World and Silent Night. Love them both and they both give me a chill when I hear the organ start in Church and everyone starts to sign. The whole church fills with joy.
