Penny, I really love your card. With the traditional red and green it is a knockout! My order is going in tomorrow and I definitely NEED that stamp and die set with the paper. A thousand possibilities with that set. Thank you for using it for this challenge. You have inspired me as usual, Sis.
Thanks so much for commenting Heather. I thought no one liked my card, so I'm glad you did. You're going to like this stamp set........it's got awesome possibilities and the die set that goes with it is fantastic. My card was pretty plain and simple, not a lot going on in it, but sometimes that's all you need. Thanks for your support!
