HLS Christmas Challenge December "Stars"

Good evening all. It's blowing an absolute hoolie outside tonight, glad I'm inside! All ready for the Christmas tree in the morning then hubby can shampoo the rest of the sitting room carpet. Christmas cards all written and overseas ones posted...I must have forgotten something very important - I can't be this organised!!!

Another month has passed and it's time once again for a new Christmas challenge at Happy Little Stampers. The theme this month is:



This challenge is sponsored by



Winner will receive this stamp set



Here is my card:


I love the script stamp from the Thinking of You set, it's perfect for any type of card....I've stamped it twice here and heat embossed with silver EP. The greeting from Mixed Christmas Sentiments is also heat embossed. The star die is a Signature Die from Joanna Sheen. Mat dies are from Spellbinders. Gem from my stash.

Do pop over to the challenge blog to see the inspiration from the rest of the team, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

That's Crafty - season's greetings
Creative Knockouts - tis the season
