Hello stamping friends!!
Edited: This card made Honorable Mention at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown!! :-)
It's an extremely busy week for me since we are going out of town on Friday for Spring Break. We are traveling to Tennessee to visit Scott's father before he starts chemo. So I have to get taxes, DT work, get the store ready to close for a week, and pack! Oh, and we have Ansley's first softball game tomorrow night and Ryan has TBall practice on Thursday night! Yikes!
So, I'll make this quick today.
Today is the mid-way for the ABC Christmas E is for Evergreen Challenge.
I am really trying to make an effort to do mid-way cards this year so I have all of the cards I need in time to mail them out in November (I am always late at mailing out my Christmas cards). Of course, I missed a few challenges, but at least I'm trying.
And since I didn't have the time to make a card for the Stamp and Create Product Spotlight Sale for Crafter's Companion on Monday, I thought I would use one of my favorite Popcorn Bear Stamps for this card.
As a reminder, all Crafter's Companion stamps are on sale this week at least 25% off (including the fun Popcorn Bear stamps).
I want to mention that the Crafter's Companion restock order is expected to arrive on Thursday.
Ok, here's my card...
This is the fun Magical Christmas Popcorn Bear along with Splotchy from TGF. The papers are Times and Seasons by Echo Park.
The image was embossed in black onto watercolor paper and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
This is one of the HUGE stamps, so I kept the layout simple.
Now it's your turn to come join in on the challenge! It runs through Tuesday, March 20th.
This card is also for the following challenges:
Winter Wonderland: Christmas Scene
Jingle Bells: Photo inspiration (I used the pillow with the tree for my inspiration)
52 Christmas Card Throwdown: Color Challenge - Blue, Red, Green
Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping!
