Time to Play Catch up

Between moving, then internet connection problems,  and a dead laptop, I have gotten very far behind on my posting. I have some cards from early summer that never even got photographed. For Christmas, however, I received a beautiful new color printer/scanner. Today I hooked it up and scanned some of my cards from December swaps.

This one is from the Sisterhood of the Traveling cards and is from November really (oops, did I say these were December cards? Well I did make this one so late, it nearly was made in December...) The theme was "a Christmas memory" and we were unable to use red or green. My mind immediatly went to this stamp. I have had it forever and every once in a while think about passing it along, and can never bring myself to do so. Took me a while to find it, I had a moment of panic that I really did get rid of it and forgot!

I have no idea what company and I am all tucked up with my blanket and heating pad and am not about to get up to go find out (if it even has it printed on the wood) Eventually I will update this post, assuming the stamp even tells me. After coloring with Prismas, I punched the snowflake border in vellum and laid it over the top for a nostalgic look. Then I had to take a trip to my new LSS (did I mention I have moved and now have a LSS? No? Oh, I am sooo far behind) I picked three different varieties of ribbon, brought them home and tried them all against the card. This was the best fit. The snowflake came from my overflowing drawer of random embellishments. (Someday that drawer will be in a well organized stamp room. I have the stamp room now, thanks to the move, the well-organized part, not so much...)
