Browsing through other blogs lately, I've been seeing lots of Christmas cards, and it's got me in the mood. Perfect timing. I wanted to create something to enter the latest Serendipity Stamps Challenge.
This month's theme is What's New. I have a couple of new paper pads, but neither of them seemed appropriate for the stamp scene I wanted to create. I do, however, have these die cuts that I received for Christmas a couple of years ago. The package was a bit sticky, so I took them out and put them in a little box...and forgot about them when last Christmas came around.
I also have this new set of pens to use.
I knew for sure I wanted to make something blue, in honor of our Kansas City Royals playing for the ALCS pennant. I went through my paper pads and picked out this lovely snowflake blue. The stamping looked great, but it DID NOT go with the die cut I had picked out, so I tried two more cards and finally came up with this one.
Supplies: Winter Homestead stamp from Serendipitystamps.com; Branches stamp set from Inkadinkado; Cloud Blue stamp pad from Ranger
I'll share those other two creations another day.
Thanks for stopping by!
