Today's challenge..Audrie gave us the inspiration site of Angela. This is what caught my eye. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/426716133422912938/
Starting my Christmas cards....since they will need to be done in the next two weeks. My thought is to make a card personal without being a picture card. Using Angela's pin and one that showed this stamp set used in a rustic style thought about how can it be made numerous times , and not too time consuming.
First...cut out ten card fronts out of the craft paper. With my misti stamped the wood bg. Next did the ten sleds, painted with the reinker and white acrylic paint...did the tree..attached the window die...painted the windows. Splattered with a toothbrush the acrylic paint that was thinned with water. Now to get the personalized part included on the card....took my Christmas list and typed the names. Spaced them so Warm Wishes could be stamped above them. After making two cards....it really went fast. Added the tiny bow. TFL

As usual, I see I've missed another one of your creations. Never in my wildest dreams, would I be able to have thought to use that window die with a sled. Your card shouts wintertime and beauty with your EF, window and sled. It's reminiscent of days gone by. Just beautiful, Linda. I can see why you received so many comments.
