A Touch of Christmas #11

On to week #11 of A Touch of Christmas. Moving right along! I chose to do a gift card this week with a little reindeer stamp from the C.C. Designs Sugarplum North Pole Collection. The gift card came out larger than I expected, but as always it was fun to do! I layered the deer, added some Prima flowers, and some punched leaves from what has become my favorite punch by EK. I'm having a heck of a time with the McGill punches I have. Love the look of those leaves as well, but I'm clearly lacking in the strength one needs to use them. Any suggestions on making them easier to use would be much appreciated!

I've entered this little Christmas Gift Card in a few challenges:
Cupcake Craft Challenges #82 - used a lot of Green
Pollycraft Monday Challenge #36 - Sparkly Things (used clear gems)
Fussy and Fancy Friday #6 - Green

Gingersnaps and Some News!

First I have to share my news…
I was asked to be one of the two December Guest Artists for Sweet Pea Stamps! Very exciting for me to be asked, and their stamps are just fabulous! One of the lines they carry, that I fell in love with as soon as I saw them, is by Ching-Chou Kuik. They’re beautiful fantasy stamps. Another line that is simply adorable is their Gum Drop Gang, and they have several others that are a lovely mix. If you haven’t seen them you should really check them out. You can find their website: HERE and their blog: HERE


Now on to my card….
