I decided at the last minute, literally hours before they left, to go on vacation with my husband and our boys. Needless to say, the card I have planned for this month's Christmas inspiration is still only an idea in my head. It was on the list of cards to create while they were gone--honest!
This last card was a real 'OOPS'! I adhered everything on the front upside down! My fold was at the bottom instead of the top! My quick fix was to score the empty side at 2-3/4" and make a stand-up easel card! Problem solved with some of the scraps I had on my table to finish the front.
I will tell you that I'll be using the Christmas Season stamp set with Parakeet Party, Shaded Spruce, and Sweet Sorbet. I should be able to create the card and get it posted before the weekend.
I hope you come back to see my card. Maybe I'll even make more than one. We'll see!
UPDATE!!!
I decided to SYOPP--Stamp Your Own Patterned, with these stamps and ink colors. I started with an 8" X 9" piece of Soft Sea Foam card stock and randomly stamped my images making sure to stamp off the edges and overlapping somewhat. I then cut that piece into 6 - 3" X 4" pieces.
I tried to share a variety of ways to use these pieces. Most of what I used is still current product. I have not been able to purchase new Christmas stamps yet. The preorder for demonstrators begins June 1st!
