I am happy to say that I finally figured out what to do for our family Christmas card this year. I am also surprised that I ended up using a Thomas Kinkade image!! How can I say this nicely? He is NOT my favorite. I knew I HAD to have one of his stamps for my Christmas card after seeing this card a couple of weeks ago by Dawn (aka TreasureOiler). It's gaw-geous!!
I ended up not doing the cracked glass technique, though, because it just wasn't looking right with this image for some reason. I DID use my new Spellbinders Labels One dies (yay!!) I also used the little fir branch punch by Martha Stewart. I think that is the greatest little punch! Now I just have to make about 60 more!!
Have a happy day and thanks for lookin'!
