Thanks for stopping by my blog! I hope that I can help inspire you with my cards! Making cards is a way for me to relax and let my creativity bloom. For this card I combined the Love of Leaves Bundle and the Gnome for the Holidays Stamp set all by Stampin Up®. I really wanted to find a way to use a fall stamp set and turn it into a Christmas Card. This is my finished product! Let me know what you think in the comments below!
Here’s a video link for this card and a fall card that I did with the Love of Leaves bundle!
