Here is another CTMH stamp I have had and not used. I have tried but it never suited me. I'm still not real crazy about it but yet I think it's a cute image. Anyway I stamped Santa in Versa Mark and used Zing glitter ep. Cut him out with a Nestie then inked the edges with him in the die. Stamped and cut my sentiment. Paper is all SU and the red has embossing. I realize the challenge was black and white with a pop of color and I didn't follow the rules very well. I hope the challenge police don't get me!
This has been a challenge making this while cooking!
Happy Thanksgiving to all!

It's funny...I have a set of stamps from Inkadinkado that are much the same style as this and they've never suited me either!! I love what you did with yours...might have to give it a try....your card is lovely!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Sylvia, I think of it as your twist on the challenge....a red/white card with a "pop" of black. Looks terrific to me...and a lovely Christmas card as well.

Don't you just hate it when you buy a stamp that you think is so great in the store and then when you get it home you wonder what you're goning to do with it?! I think your card is very nice. I like the houndstooth dp with this card.

It's funny how we all can relate to the stamps we bought thinking we were going to use them alot.....and then we had a hard time with them. I really like what you did with the image and glitter. Red with the pop of black works for me. Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving. I ate too much. Thanks for playing along on this busy day.
