So I used the new inks Candy Apple and Clover on my Christmas Themed card but I don't have the matching cardstock yet, so I used the Candy Apple ink to ink the edges of the white strip 1.5 x 5.5 inches. I did the half and half stamping on white cardstock and stuck with 3D Foam tape on the Gold Glitter Paper. I cut a Gold glitter paper pennant. 
I stuck the strip of white with the candy canes and Christmas trees with 3D foam tape too. Then I stuck white dots from the Black & White dots. 

I have been singing "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"  Here is my favourite Pentatonix version of the song. Get into the Christmas Spirit (okay its September but I can get Christmassy already can't I?). 


After I got all Christmassy. I decided I loved the title "Thankful for sweet friends like you". I grabbed my favourite Raspberry ink (that's a bit messy since I got it returned after loaning it out to someone). Then I randomly stamped on white cardstock 3.75 x 5 inches with the lolly wrapper, then the love heart and then filled in the smaller areas with the 3 little stars. I lined it with raspberry cardstock, 4 x 5.25. Then the title in Black ink with 2.5 x 2 inches and then half inch larger with the raspberry cardstock to back it.

I adhered the title to the cardstock and then sat it up with 3D foam tape.

    1. I think a set of these would be really fun. Random stamping is always fun too. You can cover up any imperfections with another stamp :)
