Musical Christmas

Wow, I'm taking a trip down memory lane with this card. The Merry Christmas border stamp is one of my very early stamp purchases at Hobby Lobby. The OLW border stamp challenge got me looking at all my border stamps...even the really old ones! Can't think of a single thing to do with this stamp that's one layer, but two layers sure are pretty!



Supplies
stamp: Stampabilities (copyright 2003, HR1012, We Wish You a Merry Christmas)

ink: Palette noir
paper: SU real red, PTI white
accessories: ribbon, glue dots, Bow Easy, dimensionals

Absolutely beautiful! I love the shiny satin ribbon.

Very luxurious looking card, and yes using it as a one-layer border stamp would look like MY one-layer border stamps for the Challenge......boring!
Even the MFP apple border looks boring on a one-layer card.

But I'm not giving up yet! :-)
