Hello stampin' friends and happy Tuesday! Made it through Monday without anymore crazy weather or ER visits...whew! Here's to hoping the rest of the week goes just as well :-)
So, I've had an idea brewing in my head since Christmas, but never got around to actually putting it on paper. Until today! I saw the fun challenge over at Merry Monday and thought it was time to make my idea come to life. The challenge this week is to add some country charm to a Christmas card using stitching and buttons...just what I had in mind for my card!
While this may not be a full on "Country Christmas" card, we can maybe call it a "Classy Country Christmas" card, right?!!?
Supplies Used:
Paper ~ Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Gold Foil
Ink ~ Whisper White Craft
Stamps ~ Endless Wishes*, Christmas Messages, Greetings of the Season
Other Supplies ~ Neutrals Designer Buttons, Pearl Basic Jewels, Dazzling Details, Gold Sequin Trim, Gold Bakers Twine, Linen Thread
*Stamp Set no longer available, in MDS format
I am so happy with how this turned out! It's always good when I can make an idea in my head come to life on paper :-)
And a little shout out to Mother Nature...just because I created a pretty, wintry card, that does NOT mean we want more snow!
Happy Stamping!
