Sahara Sand and Real Red

I hope all of my American friends had a fabulous Thanksgiving.  We had a great day spent with family and a wonderful meal!  So much to be thankful for!

Today I am sharing a nice and simple, easy to mail Christmas card!  I like these two colors together although they are a bit tough to photograph properly.


Stamps: Snow Much Fun, More Merry Messages
Paper: Real Red, Sahara Sand
Ink: Black, Real Red
Other: markers, wide polka dot ribbon and the dots embossing folder, corner rounder.

Happy Friday!

Try Stamping on Tuesday!

Well, thank you, I think I will. Stamp on Tuesday that is... What a fun sketch they have over on the Try Stamping on Tuesday Blog today. You all know I love sketch challenges and I was excited to find this new own. I have seen it once or twice on groups but have not had the time to check it out until today! And so now you can check it out too! And why not join me and play along. Here is there sketch....



And here is my card for the challenge....



I had some fun with the ribbon.  Used little pieces of it to make the bottom edge of the focal image and then tied two different pieces together for the bow.  Not so sure I love it--but I do like it, lol.  I used the tree from the Snow Much Fun stamp set.  After stamping the first tree (the front one) I cut out a mask and covered the tree and then stamped two more so they look like they are behind the first one.  I love Cherry Cobbler and Lucky Limeade together. (I know I already told you that yesterday, but I really do).
