Happy Little Stampers January Challenge


It's time for Happy Little Stampers January Challenge!


I made my card with the Happy Little Stampers stamp set called,"Christmas Joy."

I embossed the poinsettia and sentiment in gold, and added some red stickles for the center. For the background I used some fun plaid paper,and flecked some white acrylic paint onto the kraft paper with a toothbrush.Then I tied on some baker twine.

I hope you will head on over to Happy Little Stampers and play along!








Paper: SU, patterned
Ink: gold embossing
Dies: Lil inker stitched rectangle
Stamps: Happy little Stampers Christmas Joy
Other: bakers twine
