From Halloween yesterday to a Christmas card today....
I wanted to play along at Merry Mondays again this week where the challenge is to make the sentiment the focal point. I got an Honourable Mention for my card last week which was a great surprise :)
I gold embossed one of the new Tim Holtz Christmas sentiments in gold and die cut with a Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle. I inked the edges with Antique Linen and framed the sentiment with the fab pine cone stamps and dies from Waltzingmouse Stamps.
I will also join in at Addicted to Stamps and More which has a holiday theme for its current challenge.
Finally, I shall link up at the Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge which has a Christmas theme.
It is great to be ahead with my Christmas cards for a change - if I can make a few a week from here on I should be just about ok this year :)
Thanks so much for stopping by and your kind comments.
Bye for now,
