Thank you for your patience (if you’ve stopped by already)…my artwork was delayed because of a church event I was involved in this weekend. Lots of emotions were involved as one of my dearest sisters in Christ and her family are moving away and I was asked to decorate for the farewell party. I had lots of fun with the theme…Happy Trails! More to share on that later…

So, with no further ado…

This is such a FUN stamp set! I’ve had a great afternoon of creating with it. I used the Believe Level 2 Paper Packet along with the Olive Mini-Medley Accents. I learned from a fellow CTMH consultant that I could use the stocking image from the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge…cutting it at 3-1/4”. So, I cut the stocking out and then stamped the stocking image in Holiday Red. The Sky B&T paper stocking accents were also cut with the Cricut at 3-1/4”.

Thanks again for stopping by!
