Hello stamping friends!!
Before I get to today's post, I wanted to mention that High Hopes is still showing sneak peeks of the new stamps that will be released on Thursday. Make sure to check them out! Then come back tomorrow for the release!
Ok, today is time for a new ABC Christmas Challenge! I love getting to use some of my favorite Christmas/Winter stamps that maybe didn't get enough use over the Holidays. That's one of the best things about playing along with the ABC Christmas Challenges! Of course, the other is actually not having to rush to finish up massive amounts of cards in November/December!!
The new ABC Christmas Challenge is: E is for Evergreen.
This is basically: Christmas Trees, Holly, Mistletoe, or add Evergreen color to your card.
Just remember that it MUST be a Christmas card or project (tags, gifts, boxes, and Scrapbook pages are allowed as long as they follow the theme).
We have a few sponsors this week:
In2stamps and Simon Says Stamp
Make sure to check out the Challenge post for prize details.
Here is my card...
I wanted to use the adorable Winter Fairy from Wee Stamps at least one more time! She's so adorable :-)
The papers are Times and Seasons by Echo Park along with a doily, black pearls, and sentiment from Wild Rose Studio (restock WRS order is on the way).
The sketch is from Sketch Saturday this week.
The image was embossed in black onto watercolor paper and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
On the inside, I stamped the image again along with some Magnolia Sweet Snowflakes...
Now it's your turn!! Come play along with the challenge, it runs through March 20th.
This card is also for:
Crafty Hazelnut Christmas Challenge: Seeing Red
Crimbo Crackers: Female (and Christmas)
Christmas Card Challenges: Embossing (heat or dry - I heat embossed the image)
Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping!

Delightful card and love the pop of red. I don't know why, but I didn't enter for ABC last time - I meant to, but time went by - hoping to do something for Evergreen. Thanks for joining in my CHNC challenge 62 - hope to see you again soon. x
