SHOPPING OUR STASH #177 - NOT Ready for Christmas


Hello peeps! We have a new challenge at SHOPPING OUR STASH that's all about NOT being ready for Christmas! What's that mean? Well, we want you to get out one of your gazillion Christmas stamp sets, and use a stamp from it to create something NON-Christmas. How's THAT for a challenge! LOL! Here's what I came up with:


 Here's the inside:

Using one of the ornament stamps from Paper Smooches All Yule Need set, I made a banner! The DP were all scraps. After stamping and fussy cutting, I punched holes in the tops then strung baker's twine through them. They are adhered with foam squares. Both sentiments are stamped in Peacock Feathers DI, then clear embossed. It's about as CAS as I get. ☺

I hope you get a chance to play along with this challenge. Just be sure to link up your project at Shopping Our Stash so we can be dazzled! Please check out what my teammates created for your viewing pleasure while there! Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you have a great day!

  7. I couldn't figure out what stamp you'd used for the banner - that's genius! Love all the patterns, and Peacock Feathers is my new go-to ink :)
