Challenge Title: Scottish Plaid
Hostess: Michelle (Mit240z)
Keyword: DEC15VSNH
Date: Saturday, Dec. 12


Halo! Ceud Mile Failte!

Hello and Welcome! I have always had a bit of a fascination with Scotland, from my love of plaid to my obsession with Scottish historical romance novels (that will be our little secret ). I was overjoyed when I learned that both of my grandfathers parents were from Scotland and I myself have some Scottish blood in me! That explains so much about my temperament ;)

My challenge to you is to use plaid on your card.

I can't wait to see a beautiful gallery full of plaid!

I just watched a couple videos where the women drew a plaid pattern on their cards. We'll see how my attempts turn out!

My childhood friend's grandmother was Scottish and lived with them. She collected anything with a Scottie dog on it (that may not be the correct breed name but that is what she called them). She was the cutest and sweetest thing!

We went to Scotland on our British Isles cruise this year. We loved Scotland! Love plaid too!

Going to think while I turn out some Christmas breads out to cool.

[smadson]

PS, love your card!

[mit240z]

That sounds fun to try, I'll have to look that up. I can't wait to see your attempt!

I don't know the correct name either but I know exactly which dog your talking about.

[mit240z]

Thank you Sharon! I would love to go to Scotland one day.

Perfect for me needing a masculine Christmas card. Thank you for the great challenge!!! DEC15VSNH Plaid Christmas by Shoe Girl - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Best as I can figure out, my paternal grandfather's ancestors came from Scotland but it was so far back that it's really hard to say for sure. Still, I loved making this Scottish-heritage card with a muted plaid background: DEC15VSNH Scottish Plaid by melissa59 - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

I've always known them as Scotties.
Do you have the Black & White whiskey ads over there - with the Scottie and the Westie?

[mit240z]

Aww that's so cute. I haven't seen those ads I don't think they have them out here.

I do like to use pretty reds and greens in plaid for Christmas, but when I came across this piece of light blue it spoke "baby boy" card to me. Since Tiny Tot will be having a baby brother I was inspired to make this card.
