Shut the front door!

I am loving this this super fun stamp set Wondrous Wreath-it is so versatile.  It can be used for any holiday or season although it was designed for Christmas cards.  I have seen lots of these front door cards around the web--actually they come around every year around this time--so I thought I would try it out with this wreath.  So pretty! 

Since it is the beginning of a new month it is also the beginning of a new monthly challenge on the Latenight Stamper's blog.  Come on over and play along with us, the theme for the month is Fall/Family/Thanksgiving!

Stamps: Wondrous Wreath, For All Things, Woodgrain BG

Paper: Sahara Sand, Whisper White

Ink: Sahara Sand, Blackberry Biss, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry

Other: framelits, retired brad

Falling for The Newborn King.

As a christian I always need to buy the current stamp sets for Christmas that have a christian theme to them and this is so fun and whimsical so I knew I would have to have it--but those of you who know me know that I do not like to use stamps for ONLY ONE purpose so I am using this set for my Latenightstamper's Challenge this month! Yep, I said month--our new challenges will run for a full month and you will have a general theme so you will have no excuse for not playing along. lol.  The October challenge will be to create a sample that fits a Fall, Harvest or Halloween Theme!  Fun right?

So what do you think?  Does it work for fall too???

Stamps:  The Newborn King, For All Things, Fall Fest
