this Christmas adventure

I received some new toys tools last week and had to test them out.  Mindy's Fab Friday colors and Stephanie's Jingle Belles sketch made it easy! I was confident enough to fiddle a bit with the shapes and dimensions:
stamp set - Peace This Christmas; ink - Cherry Cobbler; Stampin' Write markers - Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green; card stock - Very Vanilla, Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler; designer series paper - This Christmas; Big Shot with Layering Circles framelits, Tags & Labels framelits and Lots of Labels framelits

I didn't think I could love a designer series paper set more than last year's Home for Christmas, but now we have This Christmas, and (of course) the coordinating stamp set - I feel my fickle heart shifting.

    Love how you made the sentiment the focal point ... the stamping on the envelope is always such a nice touch ... so very glad you got sketchy with us at jingle belles.
