Holiday Cheer!

I got this unmounted stamp years and years ago in a grab bag from Viva Las Vegastamps, and have never even inked it up, except to catalogue it. The current Christmas Kickstart challenge calls for Christmas Cheer (AKA alcohol), so what better time to get this out and onto paper?! I dug through my stash of Christmas 6x6 stacks to find this retro design by My Minds Eye, and added die cut holly leaves by Crafters Companion that I got as a magazine freebie. Those bubbles floating around the "cheerful
couple might actually be olives, but I colored them to appear clear because...well, floating olives are even beyond my imagination, haha!

    Bubbles make much more sense than olives to my mind too! What a fun image and a lovely card. Thanks for playing at Christmas Kickstart again, Jo x

    Hello, Karen, just thinking of you and hoping all is well. Glad to see you posting some cards lately. Such a fun image and card! And good for you for getting another Christmas card made! As the weather warms up here, it's getting harder for me to think about making Christmas cards, but I will be trying to remember my goal of 2 per month! Thank you for inspiring! I hope you and your loved ones are all safe and healthy.

      Thanks Kitty, with all the quarantines etc, I expected to get a lot of card making done, but it's been the opposite! This was one that I was determined to make though, since this stamp is at least 10 years old. Old stamp, old patterned paper, old card stock...all a bonus! Hope you are staying well too.
