Sweet Stamps Challenge 39 - So Thankful

Today our challenge at Sweet Stamps blog is So Thankful.  Anyone can enter, but if you use a Sweet Stamps rubber stamp you get two entries into the challenge for a chance to win a $20 shopping spree.


Now this must look like an odd Thankful card but I love the holiday season.  Some of my best childhood memories revolved around the holidays.  So I am thankful to see them fast approaching.  I began my card with this fabulous Cheery Lynn Designs die, Princess's Garden Window Frame.   Then I stamped this beautiful Poinsettia Candles image from Sweet Stamps onto Cryogen paper with Memento Tuxedo black ink, coloring with my Copic markers.  I embossed the green panel with my Cheery Lynn Designs XL Poinsettia embossing plate.  Finished size is 5.5" square.

Be sure to visit Sweet Stamps blog and see what the rest of the team has created for you.   And please join in on the fun!
