Stamp Simply is a wonderful store filled with beautiful stamps, dies, and so many fabulous products to help you make amazing cards. Because they have such wonderful images and sentiments, Stamp Simply makes it simple to create the most beautiful cards and projects. I've been having SO much fun using all the New Release items and beginning to combine them with all the other wonderful products found at Stamp Simply..jpg)

I used the new Vintage Christmas Background Stamp to create the base image which was stamped in black on white cardstock. I placed that on a piece of wood paper from the Craft Consortium 6x6 Wood Textures Paper Pad. The beautiful twigs surround the skates and sentiment so nicely. The Vintage Seed Packet Ovals & Twigs Dies allowed me to cut the two oval sizes and layer them using 3-D Foam Tabs.
I cut the red gingham border using Tim Holtz Crochet Border Die. Next, I stamped the ice skates using the Vintage Christmas Images Stamp Set, colored them with my Copics, and cut the skates using the Vintage Christmas Images Dies. The sentiment (Let It Snow) is also from the Vintage Christmas Background Stamp Set.
I wrapped my card in Black Baker's Twine. I also cut several twigs using the Vintage Seed Packet Ovals & Twigs Dies that I colored with Copics. I placed them around the sentiment spot to frame that a bit. The oval itself was also cut using the Vintage Seed Packet Ovals & Twigs Dies. I love how all these new sets work together and complement one another so nicely.
