Christmas card on Kraft




 This is a first for me. I was able to enter in more
 than two challenges. 






It was killing me not to add sequins!

I kinda like how this one turned out! 
 I used; Simple Sprig from Waltzingmouse Stamps, love this set!
Papertrey Ink for the sentiment.
Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments and 
of course Lil Inkers

Thanks for stoping by!

  22. Another lovely card from you. I keep forgetting how nice cards look with kraft for the background...must get out my kraft card stock. You have so many pretty cards...that I just became one of your new followers want to come back to have a better look when I have more time.

  23. Marybeth! Wow! Your two cards using the new Waltzing Mouse stamps, made me go immediately to see the set on their site. To say that you 'sold it' better than anyone else, would be an understatement. (Sshhhhh - I was not impressed with any of the other samples.) Your spot-on, elegant take, is making you one well viewed crafter. You just blow my socks off every time! Thanks again for sharing dear lady.
