Love & Holly

Hey y'all!  We've got the contractors here again today to do the grout and caulking on our shower and we MIGHT actually get to USE IT by this weekend!  I'm very excited after 3 months of going down the hall to Ryan's bathroom.  Daphne will be excited when it's done too because she gets locked in her crate while the contractors are here.  She gets stressed out with them coming and going so it's easier for everyone if she's in doggo jail.

I've got a festive card to share today.


I'm mixing old and new on this one, with some super-old Brushed Gold cardstock, a stamp set from 2021, and this year's Regal Winter suite.  First off is the Atlantic Hearts sketch:


I tried to stick pretty close to the sketch.  Next is the Paper Players color challenge:


Cherry Cobbler and Pretty Peacock are both in the Regal Winter DSP so I started there and added gold accents.  Last up today is the Retro Rubber tic-tac-toe challenge:


I went diagonal from the top right with dies - greenery - twine.  I thought for a minute that I was trying to go down the right and had missed doing woodgrain, ha!  As I said before, Christmas Season is 3 years old.  My Brushed Gold cardstock is probably over 15 years old so it's super retro.

Have a great day, peeps!
