Sarah Kay's Christmas


I love Sarah Kay stamps but you might have guessed that by now and I also love it when I use the last of some old papers. It also helps because you have no choice how you use them, in this case I had two strips of the dotty and checks and a larger bit of the patterned also I had previously used the red dotty for flowers so it had random bits taken out of it.
So here is the end result, I used punches for the flowers only cos I was cold and didn't want to venture out of my craftroom  and my Big Shot is inside the back door across an unheated walkway. The Holly swirl is from Cheery Lyn and I don't believe it but that does look like the MFT crochet die, I guess the only way I won't be using it is when it doesn't work anymore.
