So the challenge this week at The Friday Mashup was to use a stamp that has nothing to do with the holidays and make a holiday card with it. Heidi encouraged us to get a cup of coffee and think about the challenge before grabbing a stamp set, so that's exactly what I did. It was good advice because after a bit I remembered I had a punny stamp set that was pretty much tailor-made for this challenge. I liked the sketch at iSpy so I used that as my layout.
My sister and her family recently adopted a pooch, so I think I'm going to send this to them! I used some Holiday Treasures DSP to create this fun houndstooth and striped background. The row of "buttons" at the top were stamped with the aptly named Button, Button and sort of resemble candy to me more than buttons. (Think sugar plums dancing in my head)!
I'm so glad that I remembered this stamp because it's always fun to make non-traditional cards! Thanks for stopping by!
Oh my goodness, Jen! I LOVE this one so, so much. I think I might need that stamp set! I hate coloring, but it is just too stinkin' cute!
ReplyDeleteOh come on now! How cute and clever is this!
