Here's My Card: 

As a demonstrator we often get access to products that will be coming out in catalogues or part of the online exclusives ahead of customers, and so I was able to purchase the first of my Christmas stamp and die sets for the upcoming holiday season.  This over the top stamp set is called "Sophisticated Sled" and it has coordinating dies by the same name.  

This was my first time using both and I'm extremely pleased with how this card turned out. 


I stamped the skates in Misty Moonlight on the front corner of the envelope and then stamped it off again on a scrap of paper before applying it to the inside mat. I love the faded look and it was easy to stamp the wonderful sentiment overtop in the corresponding ink.

Thank you for taking the time to drop by today.  I'd love to hear your comments on this card.  It is another of my Christmas must do cards and I'm very happy with how quick it was to make and how clean and simple the design is.  Thanks Freshly Made Sketches for the wonderful sketch this week which influenced my card design.
