#FestiveFriday0024, A little note



Since Hubby and I don't do the New Years eve thing, we are all low key right about now.  He is recovering from an illness and I just took a break from making cards.

This was really a fun little card, here is the challenge, come on over and play, there are prizes involved.


I think I covered both bases with my little Post Card Pals image.  I just think he is the cutest thing. The sentiment which worked out so well is from Butterfly Gala, in the new Occasions catalog.  That, along with the SAB goes live on Jan 3rd!   It's is hands down the best yet!  The free product in the SAB will blow you away.  Once again they have a $100 catagory, but not too much there, most of it is buy $50 in product and choose something from the SAB. 

You can buy the new Tea stamp set and get the framelits free with a $100 purchase, that is pretty cool.  I'm taking them up on that offer, it's the nicest tea set we have ever had.

On with the card.  I made up a piece of Watercolor paper using both Balmy blue and Pacific point then let that dry and stamped my image in black, cut it out with one of the new rectangle stitched framelits, then added a piece of DSP from the Subtles DSP set in Balmy Blue under it.  I turned the stripes so I cut it crooked to have the angle I wanted. I used the next size up in the rectangle set.

The ribbon is one of 5 in this set of free ribbon in the SAB, 5 different colors in the one set. I love when we get more then a single ribbon in a set!
So, if you are not in love with coloring, this idea should help you if there is a set you love but just don't love that you need to color it.   I do usually enjoy coloring but this time I just didn't.
