Hi everyone! Happy Monday and October 1st! Can you believe how fast the time is flying by?! Another fun challenge is live this morning over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m happy to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #3 – October Anything Christmas Goes! This huge stamp is from Sparkle N Sprinkle – I absolutely love Stella (kinda reminds me of me, lol) and I had a grand time creating this Christmas card!

What a fun stamp, lol! I colored the image with Zig Clean Color markers and layered it on black glitter paper, and then layered it on some fun paper that looks like red flannel material. I added a scrap of crochet ribbon, some black glitter Gumdrops and a tiny red bow.

I decorated the inside panel with a strip of red cardstock and a scrap of black glitter paper, then stamped the sentiment and layered it on black cardstock. Love how this fun card turned out!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
