It's time for another Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog Hop. This month's theme is Chrismtas. This was one of the first stamp sets I bought from WMS. It's called Seasons of Love and I've used it a few times recently. I also just got the heart nesties to help with the cutting them out. I really want the star dies but am having trouble finding them :( The Merry Christmas background paper and the brad in the heart are both from K & Co (I think) and it is what made me want to go with the more traditional colors: red, green, gold. The gold ribbon is from my stash. I created the strip with a stamp from the set that matches the pattern in the heart (how brilliant is that). I stamped it in the same green I used with the sentiment - Distress Ink's Pine Needles. The heart was stamped in Fired Brick (I think) and then I sponged the edge of it and the main background with a variety of the browns to give it a slightly vintage feel. I also kept it on the simple side to let the image and sentiment shine.
