I got some brandy new stamps in the mail today and so I promptly inked them up!
The stamps are Starry Christmas from My Favorite Things - designed by Mona Pendleton. My design is Freshly Made Sketches. I used the colors for Dynamic Duos but missed the deadline (!) The deer is cut with the matching Starry Christmas dienamics die. The sentiments from the set are stamped on Sentiment Strips. They're all popped up on foam dots and then I just added some sequins from Neat and Tangled and sponged the edge of the panel.
So I made an anniversary card - using the Starry Dove and Dienamics die from Starry Christmas that I gold embossed, a Tim Holtz Embossing Strip and a sentiment from Waltzingmouse Fancy Phrases set. My card design is the Cas(e) this sketch.
Hope to see you back here on the 18th - 21st - I'll be participating in the Waltzingmouse Design Team 4 days of Waltzingmouse Christmas! You won't want to miss it!
