SSC 230

Good morning, Friends! Brrrr!!!! Baby it's cold outside! And in the house!! I think the temperature got down close to zero last night. So the fire feels really good right now! Thankfully, I put the flannel sheets on yesterday, too, so I slept really good! But I wanted to stay under the blankets a lot longer than I could. I was able to get a lot of stamping done yesterday and I am hoping to do the same today. I do need to start thinking about getting some Christmas presents done, too. The time is just flying by!!


Today's card was inspired by an older sketch at Stamping 411. It kind of looks like another one that I did a while ago but I did use different colors on this one. I rather like the way it turned out, too! My card base is Crumb Cake. The squares start with Early Espresso and then a piece from the Frostwood Lodge designer paper that was cut with the Scallop Squares duo die and then a piece of Whisper White. On the Whisper White piece I stamped the greeting from Bells and Boughs in Early Espresso. Then I wrapped a piece of Cherry Cobbler baker's twine around the squares and tied on some mini jingle bells. I love those little jingle bells!! Then I popped them up on the card. On a scrap piece of Whisper White, I stamped the holly in black StazOn and colored it in with Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler markers. Then I cut it out and popped it up, too. And there you have it! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
