Addicted to Stamps and More

It is time for our 'Holiday' challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More. You can choose any holiday you want or something related to holidays. I have gone with Christmas this time. And here is my card:


STAMPlorations are sponsoring us this week and I wanted to showcase one of their stamp sets called 'Holiday Artsy', actually it is my favourite STAMPlorations set! 

This card was actually inspired by 3 challenges. The silver jewel snowflake at Festive Friday caught my eye last week and I embossed one of my snowflakes to represent this. I loved the sketch this week at CAS(E) this sketch and used this as my lay out. And finally for over a week I have been wanting to enter the one layer challenge at CAS on Sunday and although I make OLC quite a lot, once I decided I wanted to enter this challenge my mind went blank until these other challenges gave me my idea!

I was happy with the result and the one little gem just seemed the perfect finishing touch.

This week we are very lucky that Anni is joining us as our Guest Designer and her card this week is full of holiday cheer! Check her card and all the inspiration from our DT here.

         


Then time to get into the Holiday spirit and join in the fun!
