Merry Christmas tall (long?) card

Another Christmas card.  I'm trying to keep up with the jingle belles challenges this year.  Since they are only every two weeks, I should be able to, and when I can, I will try to make at least 2 cards.  It's kind of funny that for this challenge, I was the first poster, and now I'm going to be close to being the last one, too! :)

I really love the sketches at clean & simple!   I've pointed a friends who are wanting to start making cards to this site.  The sketches are clean and simple, but beautiful!! 

This is for both of these challenges...
jingle belles - "a banner holiday" -this time I took the colors and bells for my inspiration
clean&simple 176 - sketch -I made mine a little longer






~Colorbok white cardstock
~Core'dinations red and blue
~Slice shimmer pearl vine for the bells
~Sizzix Snowflakes and Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folders
~MME sentiment
~bells at 1" from Christmas Noel cart
~Fiskars Threading Waters punch
~hemp cord
~foam dots

Thanks for stopping by!!!
