Now, you had better sit down for this next bit....
Ready? I used an actual RUBBER STAMP for this card. Yep, rubber, not digital. And you know what? It didn't hurt a bit. Of course working with this cute kitty image probably helped. He looks pretty happy in the snow, doesn't he? I had to include something digital so I used one of the sentiments from Raindrop Echo Designs.
Please join the "Let It Snow" (with a sentiment) challenge at Sentimental Sundays for your chance to win 4 digital stamp sets from Raindrop Echo Designs. Be sure to stop by the blog to get your freebie sentiment set that Ann generously posts each week.
Stay warm and dry! Thank you for stopping by!
