Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas Eve!

Dave and I are spending a quiet day and evening by ourselves.  I realized yesterday that I had not made a card for my wonderful husband.  I have made nearly 50 Christmas cards this year but not a one of them for Dave.  Today is the last day to enter the Lawn Fawn Merry Christmas challenge and I had a brand new little Winter Penguin stamp and die set that I hadn't used yet.  So I spent a little time in my room while Dave was gaming and worked on this card.  

It is my first attempt at using a stencil and texture paste and I don't think it turned out too bad.  I love the little penguin and I die cut those snowy hills with my Lawn fawn dies and stamped the sentiment directly on them. You cannot really tell from the photo but I die cut a  fun "window" in the front of the card and the cute little winter scene is adhered to the inside of the card.  I gave it to Dave tonight a little bit ago when we were opening our gifts and he seemed impressed.

I am also entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge

and

The current issue at Paper Issues -- Making It Merry

Thanks for stopping by tonight....Merry Christmas!!
