Red Hot Stampers Card Swap

Today's card is one I made for a card swap with the Red Hot Stampers.  I love doing these card swaps because I get such a variety of lovely cards.  So for this swap we could use any set from the holiday mini catalog and I chose The Sounding Joy...kinda obvious I guess. ;)  At first I thought I'd never come up with a card, but then decided I wanted to use the seam binding ribbon in Rose Red.  Well, that made my paper choices kind of obvious, so I started playing around from there and this is what I came up with. :)


Because the card is 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" I like to give an envelope with the card in case the ladies don't have that size on hand...and I thought I'd add just a little extra to the envelope with another stamp from the set.



Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC6

It's time for another Red Hot Challenge at redhotstampers.blogspot.com.  I had no idea what set to start with, so I listened to what other stampers in our group have been saying.  They just grab a stamp set that's sitting out on the table.  Well, the only one sitting out at the time was a new set from the Holiday Mini called The Sounding Joy.  I had to put it together first before I could use it though.  Love putting the clear-mount stamps together because they're so easy!  As you can see, I didn't go for more than three colors like the sketch suggested.  I don't think my mind could have come up with more than three!





Thanks for looking and have a great day!
