Firstly, did you notice anything new? I have a new look on my blog! (If you are reading on a reader you might want to click on over to my site to check it out). As an early Christmas gift, my sweet hubby treated me to a new blog design, and I am really happy with it! Cindy, from Blessed Design Studio put the whole thing together for me...so, if you’re interested in a 'New Look’ too, check out Her Store
So, I’m just about finished with my Christmas cards but this week’s Cue Card at CASology is ‘Knit’, and the challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More is 'Anything Goes'. So, I was more than happy to pull out my SSS holiday stamps with these adorable mittens and play along! I also used my current favorite impression plate to add some texture, my Wink of Stella pen on the mittens and some sequins to add sparkle.
Here is a close up of the sparkle on the mittens and texture on the background:
Well, that’s it for me ~ I hope everyone is doing well and ready for Christmas! I have some baking to do tomorrow, and with any luck I will also have them packed up to ship to Florida in time for Christmas Eve. Thank you all so much for stopping by!
