Doggone Christmas

If I'm honest, I spend more time looking for craft stuff than I do using it. I have too much stuff, obviously, and I'm no good at categorising so it's all jumbled together.

In the middle of an epic search for some reindeer stamps (which may or may not exist!), I stumbled upon this old Penny Black wood-backed stamp and decided to use it.

I stamped part of the stamp on kraft cardstock and coloured with Promarkers and white gel pen. The sentiment is from my new Colorado Craft Holly stamp set - this is the second time I've used it already, so I think it'll become a favourite.

This is absolutely adorable. I am pretty sure I haven’t seen it before. Great coloring on kraft! I don’t really have much of an organizational system either. I do have all the Christmas stuff together and then all the other stamps are sorted vaguely by company. I find that if I take time to look through my stamps every month or two, that I will use more stuff. Have a good weekend!

This darling image would always be an old fav in my craft room, too, Marina! It is as current now as it was when it was new and I'm glad you found it again! I love it stamped on kraft; it makes the red and white really pop! Fun sediment, too!! Hugs, Darnell
