Wow!! Here it is, the last day of November! Where has this year gone!?!? I'm so not ready for December! Since it is the 5th Wednesday of November, we have a special challenge this week from The House That Stamps Built: Anything Goes!! I decided to create a fun, interactive card because I had this fun Swing Stamp Set that I hadn't gotten to use yet. So, here is the outside:
The sentiment reads "It's time to put on some Christmas cheer. May your holidays . . ."Then, instead of opening like a regular card, you pull up the tab to reveal . . .
"be warm and wonderful" and the snowman has put on his hat and scarf! Isn't this so cute?? I added clear wink of stella to the "snow" around each snowman. So sparkly!!
I used this tutorial, if you want to check it out and see how it works. I hope you will get a chance to play along with us amid the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season that is now upon us. Supplies:
Stamps: Repeat Impressions "Snowman, 2-sided Swing Stamp Set"
Dies: Spellbinders "Classic Ovals, large" and "A2 Matting Basics A" rectangles
Challenges:
