More Mixed Media - anything mixed media with optional red

I have been busy trying to make all my design team cards for February and schedule them on my blog.   I am having eye surgery for glaucoma on Friday 7 February and Friday 21 February.  I don't know how long I will have to stay off the computer after each operation.  I spoke to the nurse on Monday and she said they would be able to tell me when I go back for the post operation check up on Monday.  (it is now Wednesday at 6.30 pm here in Sydney)

Please pray for me that the surgery will go well and I will be able to see better.   Thank you.
I added all the above as an update after this blog post was posted)

and now to today's post
More Mixed Media - anything mixed media with optional red - use a little or a lot

I embossed red card with Cuttlebug stars embossing folder
Sponged piece of gloss card with distress inks and stamped PSX Nativity stamp with red distress ink.  Trimmed with fancy scissors and sponged edges with red distress ink.  Layered onto red card.
(I bought PSX stamps when I first started stamping in 1995, unfortunately you can't buy them new any more)
Sponged piece of white card with distress inks, stamped Penny Black stamp with red distress ink,  Trimmed edges with fancy scissors and sponged edges with red distress ink and layered onto red card.
Added ribbon, star stickers and star brads.
Layered all onto white card.

I hope you will go over and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I would like to add my card to the following:
