Hello Lovelies! As of the time of this post, the November 2024 Christmas Cheer Card Kit is available and stuffed with goodies for some festive makes! If you already snagged it, that's even better, and I'm hoping this will give you an idea of how you can create a sweet layered scene with the stamp set.
After a rather intense month of coloring in STAMPtember, I am feeling a lot more comfortable with coloring and decided to make that the main technique in creating this card.
