1 - 2 - 3! Loves Rubberstamps Challenge

Hello Friends,

Before we get to today' challenge, I want to wish my little brother a very Happy 34th Birthday!  He welcomed a little boy this past Thursday and he is the sweetest little guy you have seen.  I know I am a bit biased, but I am allowed to be!  His big sister really checked him out to make sure he had all his parts.  She is very curious!

Ok, for the reason you are here, we have another challenge for you from Loves Rubberstamps!  This week we want to see 1, 2, 3 creations.  What does that mean you ask?

1 Image

2 Design Papers

3 Embellishments

Our sponsor this week is The Paper Shelter!

The Paper Shelter generously provided the design team some fun images to play with.  I have used the Christmas Carol.  I have to admit, I was a bit intimidated to color this image and almost used the pre-colored image, but I decided to challenge myself a bit and here it is.  I am pretty happy with it.  The image is cut out using MFT Die-namics Round Banner die.  I inked the edges with Antique Linen Distress ink.  I decided the image would be cute with a center step card, so that is what I did.  The papers are by Simple Stories, Aweso{me} and My Minds Eye.  The sentiment is by Memory Box and is stamped in Rich Cocoa Memento ink.
