Hi there! Today I’m excited to be joining Simon Says Stamp along with several talented designers for a Holiday Release Week blog hop!
My first card features the fabulous new Christmas Town stamp set, which was part of the Advent release.
I just love architectural images, especially for the holidays! I used the Slopes & Hills dies to make a hilly little village scene. I blended some Maliblue ink on the hills and colored the images with Copics.
I used a couple of goodies from the Holiday Card kit to make this next card.
This adorable little Retro Deer die is perfect! I cropped him off to the side of a small little ink blended panel. I stitched the small panels onto the card for something different and then added that gorgeous “joy” sticker by My Mind’s Eye that is also included in the kit.
Simon Says Stamp is so generously offering a $50 gift card to one lucky winner…WOOT!
Leave me a comment for your chance to win!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
So cute Laura!!
Such fun and different card, love them!
As always, absolutely gorgeous
beautifully done!
These are adorable…..love your ink work!

Your cards are always fantastic! Your little details you add to make them really standout like the stitching and the reindeer cutout with the red nose….are awesome! I hope one day I will have even a thimble full of your talent for design. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration!

You always use the most beautiful colors. That Christmas Town card is gorgeous.
I’m so excited to get this kit. I love the SSS kit of the months but this one I couldn’t pass up. I love this multi-colored reindeer card. Actually both cards are adorable! Now to cut out some time to finish up my Christmas cards.
I love the buildings, so cute.
Two cute cards. Love the village with the glowing lights and love the different look of the stitched card. Off to finish some gift tags.
