day 30 - do what you love



What I love is my favourite stamp ever - it doesn't matter what the season - green/yellow combo is great for spring/summer cards -brown/grey is good for male cards -blue/silver for Christmas -here I picked brown and red for a vintage feel.


 
My cardstock base was a beige/pinky colour -I used a honeycomb stencil around the edges with a light brown ink- I stamped over all this with a text stamp and white ink - I stamped dec25 a few times over the card along with a joy stamp before final adding the sentiment.
 
 
 





And here are my 30 cards -I was so far behind I think I made 6 cards in one day just to catch up.
Thank to Beccy for this wonderful challenge. What will I do next week - carry on with kitchen reno I still have to finish -

Your final card for the challenge is gorgeous Gail, I can totally understand why that's your favourite stamp. The colouring is beautiful, I love the soft reds and warm browns, they coordinate perfectly.
Great job on getting all these cards made, that's a very impressive collection!
Cheers,
Beccy

Wow, you have been a very busy lady, all the cards look terrific. I love how you stamped the 25th December and Joy in the background what an easy way to change ordinary paper to Christmas paper. Sounds like you are having fun with reno's hope they are going according to plan. I just remembered you are in Tassie, my husband and I have a trip planned down there next March….I'm so excited as I have never been to Tasmania before.
