 Getting that holiday spirit is important! Our tongue-in-cheek card is a little poke at how stressful the holidays can be. Have some eggnog - and open that bottle of rum. Instant Holiday Spirit!

Scripted Merry Bouquet

 The Christmas Berry Bouquet is so easy to color - I used glitter gel pens on mine. The sentiment is the Scripted Merry Christmas stamp. Both may be found here:

Extraordinary Script Collage

 Wow, what color intensity! Today, I used several of the Aladine-Seth Apter Dye Ink Sprays as a background, then silver heat embossed the Vintage Script Collage over the top. Adding the You Are Extraordinary stamp finishes this card off with panache! Both stamps and the sprays may be found at Technique Junkies here:

Teatime with friends

Watercolored Vintage Script Collage

Our vintage script is so pretty with just a little watercoloring! I embossed the Vintage Script Collage stamp on watercolor paper, then just brushed some watercolors over it. Easy Peasy! The sentiment is from the You're Vintage stamp set. Both may be found here:

Monochromatic Bear

 Our Bear stamp is fierce! My monochromatic card uses the Bear as the focal image, the Splendor of Nature Sentiment stamp, and the Leaf Circles in the background. Doesn't this make an awesome masculine card? You can find the stamps here:

Open that Bottle!

 Something about the Bottle Won't Open sentiment works perfectly with the girl from the Santa Checks stamp. It IS all about having Holiday Spirit, isn't it? This combo makes a great Christmas Card for anyone who appreciates a little snark in their Christmas greetings...

Wolf Splendor

 The fierce nature of the wolf is really captured in this new image from Technique Junkies. I think this is an ideal image for masculine cards. Both the sentiment and wolf image are from the November new stamp release at Technique Junkies. You can find both here:

 It's the last new stamp release of the year - and we have some WILD fun for you! Woves, Bears, Mushroms and one wild sentiment (yes, the bottle one) make up the bulk of this mnth's offerings.
