For September, I am aiming to use at least 4 uninked LOTV stamps. Embarrassingly I think that this will also hit my quota of 4 Christmas cards. So here's the first.
I stamped the image on white card, and coloured with pencils, using Sakura and metallic pens for details, and adding Stickles to the hat trim. The two open drawers were stamped an extra time and are popped up, and then each little drawer knob was popped up again.
For the frame, I stamped and embossed Hardwood in white on kraft, then cut the frame. To finish, I added some twine and little tags. I used a tiny circle punch (1/6") to cut a notch in the top corners to stop the twine from sliding. The frame and each tag are popped up on foam.

This is one of the sweetest cards I have ever seen. Took me a while to check out all the great details you brought to this adorable card creation. I also love that banner. Great Job........I'm sure who ever gets this card will just love it! TFS

The way you used the hardwood and die to make the frame is gorgeous. There are so many darling, colorful details on this card it looks like it would take months to create. Beautiful, as usual. TFS
