I found this uninked stamp from Crafty Individuals in my stash and thought it would fit some ongoing challenges. And I can never get too many Christmas cards prepared for my stash.
Seeing the cover at the book at The Library Challenge
I felt this image captures the time and age the gloved hand appears from. Also, I chose green and white as main colors.
Over at Sparkles Christmas Challenge the theme is "From our house to yours". OK, so I didn't add a house as such, but a fromt door, and the lady is personally bringing a letter "from our house to yours". Finally, over at Winter Wonderland, they have a sketch - or two actually - and the theme of embossing. I heat embossed the backgound with white EP on green cardstock, the stamp is from Tim Holtz.
Sticker sentiment is also TH, the pearl brads are from my stash.
Beautiful card! Thanks for playing along with us at Winter Wonderland Challenge.
