Oh, Fuji

Hey y'all, how was your Christmas?  The hubs and Ryan spent most of the day yesterday working to build a 3D printer, so I watched the first Santa Clause and worked on my current stitching project.  Then we had turkey for dinner and we were all so stuffed that I don't think anyone ate dessert : )  Hope your Christmas was just as enjoyable!

Anywha, I'm bringing back another old stamp set for today's card.  The challenge at CAS on Friday is to make a New Years card, and I happen to have a stamp set called New Year Celebrations.


This stamp set was available in the Japanese catalog (back when SU! tried to enter the Japanese market) and was available for a very short time here in the US.  It's obscure enough that it doesn't even have a gallery on Splitcoast and I couldn't find very many cards online made with it, so here's mine!  I stamped Mount Fuji and the surrounding sky on a scrap of Whisper White without a plan as to what I wanted to do with it and then this card eventually materialized.  I found a scrap of Poppy Parade DSP that was a pretty good match for the flower I stamped and fussy-cut, so there it is!  Happy New Year from Mount Fuji.

I have actually been on Mount Fuji though we didn't make it to the top--the hubs got altitude sickness and I didn't want to climb a mountain in the first place : p  I should send this card to Missy since she organized that trip.  Anyway, I'm going to take Daph for a walk and then maybe make some cookies.  Cheers!
