Happy Monday friends!
Time for another Merry Monday Challenge.
This week Lori wants us to use stars on our Christmas card.
I love this fun stamp set by Hero Arts called Jolly. I won this set as a door prize at StampNation LIVE and couldn't wait to ink it up! I thought this technique was perfect to use over the big Merry stamp. It is hard to tell in the photo but it is stamped using Delicata Golden Glitz ink.
I hope you will join us this week to get a head start on your Christmas
cards for 2014. Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over
at the Merry Monday challenge blog.
Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

ReplyDeleteHUGE apology dear friend! Something is amiss (again) with my e-mail not receiving post notifications from the blogs I follow...yours being one of those blogs! I have re-subscribed to your posts (3rd time!). So now I am off to once again check out everything that I have missed. Add to that a ca-razy spring cleaning rampage complete with painting & redecorating and it all adds up to 0 crafting time and 0 visiting time!
ReplyDeleteClean & graphic Christmas gorgeousness! Your letters on the diecut and panel line up perfectly! Love it :)
Great card, Kristie! Am loving that inlaid stitched star die. The black frames everything so nicely too. Just wonderful. Bev
