Good AFTERNOON, y'all, I got a late start today : ) We're going to do game night tonight with friends and I volunteered to provide dessert, so I'm baking some things for that and my house smells like gingerbread, at least the downstairs does, which is much better than it smelling like the sealer the hubs used on the floor of our shower. The hubs has finished sealing it (I think) and so now we just need to reinstall the glass wall and door and then we can USE that shower for the first time in three months.
Anyway, here is today's card:
I started with the inspiration challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments:
I zeroed in immediately on the center picture, the pitcher with the roses and pine cones, which made me think of the Holly Berry Bouquet DSP. And then I got stuck until I looked through some old sketches from Freshly Made Sketches and came across this one:
And then my card came together pretty quickly. I'm a little too late to enter this at Retro Rubber but I'm mentioning it anyway:
This time I did the diagonal, with dies - greenery - ribbon. I am continuing my trend of using older retired stamps: Cozy Christmas (the greeting) is 9 years old, and To a Wild Rose is 5 years old, so both retro. And of course my DSP is retro too : ) and so is the ribbon. Just retro all around.
That's it for me today, peeps. I need to frost the gingerbread bars and bake the Oreo cheesecake cookie dough that I made this morning before I took Daphne out for a walk. Cheers!
