Make My Monday and Thanks

Good Afternoon

  First of all I would like to thank the team at AAA Cards for picking This card as 1st place!! I'm absolutely thrilled!

I noticed that the challenge at Make My Monday this week is to use your newest or most favourite stamps...
Well, look what just arrived


I know that they're Christmas stamps, but they were in the sale so I ordered them, a while ago as it happens, but they only came today and I just had to try them out...


...I mean you don't have to use them just for Christmas do you?


I did a little water colour and some splattering just to add a little interest


I never did 'cute' at one time... looks like I am becoming obsessed by little animals and even gnomes now Lol!
 
I hope you are having a good day - My thoughts go out to all of you affected by the storms and the bad weather - Please take care

  11. Yes, cute! And as we would all like to see more of the Christmas spirit throughout the year: why not rededicate those stamps? Great idea!

  14. LOL At one time I said I never would do cute. I've learned my lesson. :-) Those stamps are so cute! The fat bears looks so warm and fuzzy and you found a perfect way to use that gnome in a non-Christmas way. Love it!
