So I don't have any challenge cards for you today, but I will share a really fun Christmas card that I made with my Repeat Impressions Christmas Penguins stamps! Check it out:
I just can't get enough of these guys! I also got a chance to play with my Stickles, which I haven't done in awhile! And the black ricrac just adds a fun touch!
EDIT: So I later realized that this card was perfect to enter into the City Crafter Challenge Week 25 - Hooray for the Holidays! =) Check out their blog HERE!!!
