Vintage Bell Christmas

DSCF9553
I squeaked out some stamping time yesterday---I just had to play with some new toys.  Isn’t this little bell cute?

I had the little sign (retired CHF) already stamped, embossed  and colored in my “unloved” stash—you know, the little overflowing basket where you put things that didn’t quite make it to a card?!  I pulled it out, made the bell with the die and Cherry Cobbler cardstock, sponged it, stamped the tree from Lovely as a Tree on some Melissa Frances paper and tied it on….done!

Here’s the inside:

Sentiments are from Sweet & Sassy, also stamped in Cherry Cobbler!  Thanks for visiting---any questions, shoot me an email!
We have had such rainy, cloudy weather lately I haven’t gotten outside to take any pictures!  Here’s a quick one I snapped while Cassidy was trying to open the refrigerator door….which she will probably be able to do soon!

What is Cassidy going to get out of the refrigerator? You may have to get a lock. LOL
I love this card and that bell is really cool. Is that retired CHF. I am not sure what CHF is. You may have told me but I forgot.

Well, how cute, both the bell and Cassidy. I didn't realize the bell was made with a die until down in the post-very realistic looking!

Well that jingle bell die is a keeper! Lucky you to own it! Love that country dsp you have under there also!

Cassidy's vest is too cute! Look at her stand and walk now! Looks pretty independent!

Oh I love this LeAnne! I hope my dies come soon! I am so jealous, lol! Love the warm colors, the vintage look, the cute sign, and the way it hangs from the branch! Adorable!

Great bell from your friend! And I love how you used that tree as your branch. Pretty, pretty card!
