This week we have a terrific challenge so I hope you can grab some supplies and play along!
Here we go!
This challenge was a wonderful one but boy, did it stump me! I guess I really do not have much in country Christmas stamps! As I sat and stewed over this it hit me that I had a scrapbook kit that Stampin Up had out when I first got into stamping. It is called Hand Stitched Holiday and I also seem to think there was a coordinating stamp set. Anyways, I dug out the kit and used a few pieces from it for this card. The DSP is also from the kit. I did however stamp the little sentiment, punched it out from the small Oval Punch and sponged some Chocolate Chip around the edges to give it a country feel. I also added 2 buttons tied with twine on the swag and also on the stocking. I was quite pleased with it!
On the inside I put another punched out swag and stamped a sentiment that I felt was perfect for this challenge. What do you think??
