It seems like I was just marking my 300th post milestone and now it’s 400, wow!
For my next two cards, I used the color challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments and was inspired to make Christmas cards (as were the DT there and several entries in the gallery!)
First I made this card using the Embellished Events stamp set and Festival of Prints dsp (retired).
Then I decided to make this card using the Mosaic Madness stamp set and sentiment from Embellished Events~
This one is a wee bit busy with the bold background paper but I still like it 🙂
Tomorrow it’s back to work so I think I may have to upload a few cards to an online gallery in order to avoid missing deadlines! I’ll still share them on the blog when I get a chance!

Wow! Happy 400th! I love the cards you share with our crafty community, keep up the good work! These two are no exception, I especially love the bold, clean layout of the santa hat card. That’s a stamp set among my favorites! Thanks for playing with the color combo at HSS! ~Erika

I have always loved Santa’s hat stamp. You did a great job of making it the focal point of the card. Thanks for playing with us this week at HSS.
