I had two great reasons for making this card. The best one is the class I had Tuesday night where a few friends and I worked on getting a head start on our Christmas cards! It's not quite Christmas in July yet, but starting in June made it so much fun!
My card was inspired by the new catalog! I am very excited about it and can't wait until July 1 when the ordering begins. I have my list all made out, and I've been very good *wink*
If you'd like a copy of the catalog I'd be happy to hear from you, just send me an e-mail. For those of you who live in my local area known as the Sandhills of NC - I'd love to invite you to join us at my new catalog Open House. My theme is Get the Scoop on the new catty! You'll be treated to Root Beer floats or my Coffee Punch, a chance to try out our great new products, a fun time of stamping, friends, and prizes. PRIZES!
Now, the card - The layout and colors I've used came from the new catty, but I used a set I already had to complete it. The Snow Swirled set first came out in the Holiday Mini, but it will be available again in the new catalog.It is so easy to create even the same 'feel' of a card or item that inspires you using stamps that you have on hand. I love stamping! Have a great day....
