So yesterday's card with the sentiment stamped too high up was just not acceptable. The more I thought about it the more I disliked it. So it was either fix it or toss it. I chose fix it. :-)
So here is the messed up card:
That sentiment was driving me crazy. So I made a few modifications and came up with this card:
I cut out the main part of the image with a circle punch. I used the same ladybug background from Doodlebug called Love Bugs. I cut mats out of black and red. I stamped the Fun Stampers Journey sentiment, put it all together and came up with this card.
This is the same image, but colored with different colors.
I used more paper from Doodlebug. The card base is from Fun Stampers Journey.
Now finally - here is this week's Christmas Card:
I'm really pleased with the way this card turned out. I colored the image months ago. Since it is an amaryllis it screamed Christmas. I matted it and put it on a piece of paper from my favorite Christmas stack last year:
Well that is it for this week. I hope you got some inspiration from this week's projects.
Tune in next week for the theme 'Anything Goes'.
Thank you for stopping by the blog. Have a great day and where ever you are - be there.

Lovely cards. I particularly like the Amaryllis one, as my mum loved them.

Very nice cards! Love the variety of the hugs and kisses cards....it's always helpful and appreciated to see a creative process and you did just that by demonstrating the different ways to basically use the same stamp, etc...thank you!
