Shopping Our Stash #27- Anything Christmas OR Winter

  Inspired by this week's challenge at Shopping Our Stash:  Anything Christmas OR Winter, I made a set of these cards for Operation Write Home.  Lots of old stash was used to create this card...I find that so rewarding :)  I really enjoy making cards for the soldiers, especially because they appreciate it so much.

  I hope you will shop your stash and create a card for Christmas or winter and link it up at Shopping Our Stash.  There is always lots of inspiration there!

Supplies:
stamp:  My Pink Stamper "Biggie Christmas"
Cricut cartridge:  Winter Frolic (trees) and Sweet Treats (present bow)
ink:  Memories (soft celery) and Stampin' Up! (whisper white)
gems:  Michael's Rhinestones
paper:  Doodlebug Design, My Mind's Eye, and KI Memories; card stock by Stampin' Up!

  Now go create!  I understand that paper-crafting burns off lots of calories consumed from Thanksgiving meals.  Actually I just made that up, but let's see if it works; I found a few pounds that I would like to lose :)

lol...aerobic papercrafting...I wish! Very adorable card today...love the papers and the design concept.
Maybe if you carry your cricut on your shoulders while walking around the house for 30 minutes, you'd have better luck burning off that turkey. Maybe I need to give it a shot too. ;)
