I have wanted to play for weeks now, but had to spend my craft time getting my Christmas cards in the mail. My printers seems to want to go on strike every Christmas and I have can't use my label program and have to email our Christmas letter to my DH at work so we can print it. GRRRRR! Anyways, the cards are done and I am finally getting back in my stamp room a little bit. I work at a Chocolate shop and this is a very busy season for us, so my stamping time is limited at best. This is a catch up card for some of the challenges this week. I am getting some clear Christmas stamps some time next week and hopefully can get a greeting stamped on this from one of them. I want to curve the greeting. I am hoping a greeting will finish this card off as it feels like it still needs something. But the ornament sticker made this fairly easy! I did use my markers to blend the colors to something a bit closer to the challenge colors this week.

Gorgeous sticker and it made a wonderful focal point on your lovely Christmas card, Kathy. You combined the challenges so well and the vellum is perfect.

Sooo pretty. I didn't think about a sentiment until you mentioned it but that will be a nice touch. Great job with both challenges. Very pretty. P.s. I wish I worked in a chocolate shop

I wouldn't have guessed a sticker either! I think it looks perfectly finished the way it is too! Love the reds and the wonderful border you used on your vellum triangle. This sketch was a challenge and I love how you created this!
