Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #66-Anything Goes!

At Addicted to Stamps and More we are having our popular 'Anything Goes' challenge. Nicecrane Designs are sponsoring us and giving our lucky winner a $20 gift voucher!

I got some new CAS-ual Friday Stamps this week and was itching to use them and when I saw the sketch this week at CAS(E) this Sketch I just new exactly how I wanted to use them. And here we are:

I wanted to add green gems to the pink sentiment but didn't have enough, then remembered someone in blogland saying that you can just colour white gems-so out came my promarkers and copics until I got the right shade I wanted.

Before you leave please do go and check out the fab projects here that our DT have created to inspire you.
I love this challenge as we get so many fabulous entries and I have a lot of fun visiting your blogs and being inspired.

Here is the sketch I used:

  14. This is great Sandie! I really like how the snowflakes are incorporated into the sentiment. Wonderful holiday card!

    Also, interesting that you commented on my teal birthday card today... the cut out that I did at the top of the card was actually inspired by a card that you made once with the city scape cut out at the top of the card. Just thought you should know that your work is inspiring! Thanks for your creativity!
