Made My Own Pattern Paper

I had a few minutes break so decided to do a quick card again which although has Christmas colors on it could technically be used for other winter occasions. My pattern paper was made with the use of snowflake stamps. My stamps on this card are all from Gina K. Designs Christmas Wishes stamp set and I also used the dies that accompany that set too.



I stamped the images from that set with Gina K. Designs Red Velvet and Christmas Pine inks. I also used Gina K. Designs Red Velvet and White card stock.


I added a white panel inside the red card base so that I could stamp or write a little message later on.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
Mix It Up Monday at Stamp TV
Double D's Challenge
Mod Squad Blog Challenge

I hope tomorrow I can get a start on making a few holiday goodies. We shall see if that happens or not. At any rate, I enjoyed a little crafting today. I hope your day is going well too and thanks for your visits and comments.

God bless,
Verna

You have sparked my mojo with this cute, but casual design. Looks like I could sit down and complete it quickly. Also thanks for the heads up on the Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop.

Beautiful card Verna, love that you made your own dp... it is the perfect choice for matching your cardstock. Every time I use dp I can never match my card stock or inks for that matter....
