Doubling up challenges again - this is for TLC410 - perfect timing, because I've been wanting to try this technique with this particular stamp (maybe not so perfect timing, because I'm not supposed to show it to you yet!! This stamp is one of Impression Obsession's new releases for January. Shhh!!) I used the colors and layout from Sabrina's card HERE to play along with the Featured Stamper challenge for the week - congratulations Sabrina!! XOXO
Tried sewing my banners on, but my thread broke toward the end, so I stitched the twine on instead.
Thanks for looking!! I'm going to prop this up on my desk for my birthday tomorrow! LOL

LOL, I was just in the middle of opening a new tab to see what the TLC was today when your notification email popped up - so I checked your card first . You're a New Year birthday? how special!! I hope you have a wonderful day.
I love that happy banner against the chalkboard and the twine looks like a great save of a broken thread. Now to see if I have time to make something for the TLC before a friend arrives with her new Big Shot looking for some tips and help.
