Hello Stampin' friends! It was quite a blustery and rainy weekend here. It was the perfect excuse to stay inside and get crafty. I made this card for the My Favorite Things Stamps Wednesday Stamp Club - Sketch # 147. I'm totally on a Christmas card kick so I had to ink up one of my all time favourite Pure Innocence stamps Warm Wishes.

Good Luck!
Here is the stunning sketch this week...I know I will be using this one again!
I used the gorgeous Authentique Glistening 6X6 paper pad for this card. I think this is my favourite Christmas paper...I bought 2 pads at ScrapFest last weekend and I think I will have to get a third...it is SO pretty! I made the cardbase from Kraft cardstock and matted with MFT Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Black Licorice, Natural, and Sno Cone. I inked up the super sweet PI Warm Wishes...one of my all time favourite Pure Innocence girls and coloured her with my Copics and paper pieced her outfit...I think she looks SO sweet! I cut her out and popped her up on the Dizzy Doily cut with the Dizzy Doily Die-namics from white glitter corrugated cardboard. I also used my Pierced Circle STAX and I just needed a few more layers for this card :) so I used the scallop border Die-namics from NEW Blueprints 8 since it was out on my desk and stamped with the More Washi Patterns Stamp set. I used MFT Kraft and Sno Cone Premium Dye Ink and Whip Cream Pigment Ink.
I stamped one of the sentiments from the Pure Innocence Warm Wishes Stamp set on Primitive Cream Heavyweight Card Stock with Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I also added some glittery snow flakes cut with the Let it Snow Die-namics and tied with a Sno Cone Button and Hemp Cord. I used some Black Viva Decor for the buttons on the PI Warm Wishes girl's coat.
Here is the inside...I stamped the PI Warm Wishes girl in Sno Cone Premium Dye Ink and use the Dzzy Doily Duo for my sentiment panel. I stamped another sentiment from the PI Warm Wishes Stamp set on Primitive Cream Heavyweight Card Stock with Kraft Premium Dye Ink cut out with the Bracket banner from Blueprints 5 that I cut with the "Cut and Re-cut" technique. I also added a glittery little button heart from the NEW Blueprints 8 tied with some Hemp Cord.
