Glad Tidings

Happy Saturday my friend!  Popping in today to share a card using Scootin' By from the Sweet Stamp Shop!  I haven't gotten the chance to really ink this one up (horrible!) so I picked this set and decided to make it into a Christmas card.


I recently purchased Echo Parks Dots & Stripes Christmas Collection, because well, I just can't have too much patterned paper, and set to work.  Starting with a white piece of card stock, I stamped the bike image inthree different colors and added my sentiment in black.  I then took a sticker from the pack and popped it up on foam and finished it off with a rhinestone and a twine bow on the red bike.  I adhered the panel to my card base, which I had adhered some striped paper.


Here is a look at the set that I used:


I hope you enjoyed today's card and might turn some of your everyday stamps into a holiday themed stamp!

Have a great day!

Lindsay

    Fun!! Love the papers... have drooled over that set for awhile. Next you should look at your holiday stamps and turn them into a non-holiday card for Jay G Nook's challenge.
