One card and post every thirty days is more, right? OK, just more than I managed in 2020, but that's all I've got so far. When the Jingle Belles prompt Something Old Something New posted, I knew immediately I would use my exciting new Gilded Leafing, but I could not decide on something old until I finally saw the inspiration and January colours at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown :
stamp set - Peaceful Boughs; ink - Shaded Spruce, Versamark; Stampin' Write marker - Early Espresso; Stampin' emboss powder - white; card stock - Whisper White regular and thick; Early Espresso, Shaded Spruce; embellishment - Gilded Leafing
After I started I realized my selected image wasn't going to fit well in the layout I had in mind, so I took a break and went back to scrolling through blogs - et voila! - the correct layout is the new challenge at Sunday Stamps - how perfect is that?
Well, my execution probably isn't perfect, but it will work for me - sheesh, I'm so out of practice!

So pretty, Kathe - love these images in such a pretty frame setup! Perfect! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
well i'm DEFINITELY seeing lots of perfection: perfect combo of old and new; perfect sketch; perfect color palette... and perfect takes on ALL the challenges including our JINGLE BELLES fun in 2021!
love the sparkle of gold ... so glad you shared both your new & old with us at Jingle Belles.
You just can't go wrong with a pretty bough of pine and a terrific pinecone! Love the gilded gold frame, it sets off the main image perfectly! Thanks for joining us at Sunday Stamps!
