No....could it be...really?

Yes, yes, its really a new post on my crafting blog! I realize its been quite a while since I last posted. Between illnesses in the family and then the holidays I just didnt have the time(or desire I guess) to get any stamping done. However, I've started to get some goodies again and sat down today to make a card.

Since we just got done with Christmas and birthdays that means thank you cards need to be sent out to all the grandparents. I am severely lacking in the thank you card dept so thats the card I needed to make today. Here is what I came up with:

I am really happy with the way the card came out. The base of the card is Sahara Sand and then I layered Ruby Red DSP on top of Old Olive cardstock. The oval and sentiment are both cut out of Whisper White and then sponged with Old Olive. The stamps come from the set Trendy Trees and I used Ruby Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Close to Cocoa ink to create the trees. Old Olive ribbon was used for a finishing touch. I also used Sketch Challenge 263 from Splitcoaststampers on todays card.

Thanks for looking!
