Festive Friday – ‘Tis the Season…

Hey guys!

I am here with a Festive Friday post for you! This week marks a new challenge for us, and this time we’re issuing an element challenge.

This time around, we’re asking that you incorporate a bird into your design, and have gone with the following graphic to inspire you:

I have been really missing my stamps since we’ve been tied up in selling our house and then our trip to Mexico… so I wanted to just sit down and stamp. I wasn’t looking for a lot of other stuff, just some ink and polymer – my happy place! So I sort of tried to go for a folky feel, and maybe even create a bit of a scene… I am not sure if I succeeded, but here it is!

I am not sure how I feel about the end result, but I can tell you it was definitely a good ‘fix’ for me!

Head on over to the challenge blog to find out more details about this challenge, and to see what the amazing girls on the team came up with – you won’t be disappointed!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful weekend!
