Hello, stamping friends! Happy November! I have a cute little Christmas card today that was sort of a happy mistake! I had stamped a piece of Azure Afternoon cardstock with the retired Buffalo Check stamp for a previous project, but decided it wasn't going to work. I saved it, though, and later on, brought it out and decided to try embossing it with a snowflake folder. I liked it! I added a bit of stamping on a scalloped panel, and came up with this:
The stamp set is used is an old, old one from Cosmo Cricket--remember that company? I don't think I ever got it inky before this! I stamped the lights and snowflake across the white panel, then stamped and cut out the ornament separately. No frills or doodads, but I think with the plaid embossed background, it's enough:
Thanks for visiting today!
Eden & Ginger in the Halloween holiday spirit:
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Your card turned out really cute. I struggle using that Azure Afternoon color. I'm not sure why. I don't remember Cosmo Cricket! The pups are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the embossing over the buffalo check, how cute! You always do blue so well, LeAnne, This is a darling card. Almost as darling as those pups in their costumes!
ReplyDeleteElvis is singing your card, LeAnne! and I'm singing along!

ReplyDeleteI love the blue with the buffalo check and the embossing on the same piece! I remember Cosmo Cricket and have a bunch of their paper in my stash! The ornament panel finishes this card nicely, LeAnne! Great job!
