This set is so stinkin' cute. When I picked sets to use to demonstrate at Convention this one was on my must have list right away.
This is one of the cards the girls did at my Stamp a Stack of Christmas cards this weekend, and it uses the amazing Deck the Halls DSP too.
This card was stamped with Stazon and colored with ink pads and refills with a blender pen. I was wondering when I look at the little girl's tights. Are they tucked into the shoes or do they come down and cover the tops of the shoes? I remember wearing tights as a kid, and some had that strap that went under your feet to keep them tight on your leg. I hated those things.
Remember the pajamas that had the feet? Then when you got too tall they still were in good shape, ya just cut the feet off so you almost had like long capri pajamas. Heck as long as the butt flap lined up in the right spot who cared how high up the legs got right?
Now how I got talking about butt flaps when I am showing you this cute card I don't know, you could blame it on Tiffany Bauer, yep I see her now going "huh?" Well she drank some Dr. Pepper at Founder's Circle and that used to be my favorite pop and I have not drank it in years, I got myself all weaned off of pop and only drink Root Beer now and then, but I thought I would have one too, and OMG! now that is all I want to drink, so I am probably all sugared up! Ha!
Enough blabbing, here's the rest of the card.
Stamp Set: Greeting Card Kids, Bells & Boughs
Paper: Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Always Artichoke, Cherry Cobbler, Watercolor paper, Deck the Halls DSP

So tomorrow I meet up with Rhonda and Marlene, I have not seen them since I left for Founders and they had the September to Remember event without me, so it will be fun to see them. Mel and Jenn are coming too, and then Mel and I are gonna do a little bit of shopping. I need to get a few things for my PA trip. It's gonna be a tad bit cooler there.
Well I am gonna sign off and say night night and you have an awesome Tuesday. Thank you so much for stopping in!

One of my favorite sets! Great card.
You changed your avatar to remove your sweetie! Love the Christmas card. Those were called gaiters and they kept snow out of the tops of your shoes. Those were a little before my time. We had overshoes to keep our feet dry in the snow. Snow! Fondly remember snow. None to be had in Central Florida.
I have been a follower of yours for quite some time. I love your work and would love to be able to be part of your workshops. Unfortunately I live in Canada and it is too great of a distance. I would love to learn your watercolouring method! This is something that I would be willing to pay to see – either it be through video or tutorial or both!! Please consider this request; as I am sure you have many followers that would be interested as well.
Thank you

Card is adorable. This stamp set is awesome. I just figured her leggings/tights were just too long. You know how parents would like something a size larger so it would last a couple of seasons!
Lovin' the card, the coloring and the new avatar. I hated the "feet in jammies" as we used to call them. It always seemed we grew out of them in just a few weeks. I hope you pack lots of socks, sweaters and hoodies. It is getting down to the low 50's at night here in the midwest so I can't imagine how chilly it is up with your BFF.

I love this Christmas Vintage look. The papers work so well xx
Very sweet. I like your choice of colors/patterned paper to add to the vintage feel of the image.
