This is one of the sweetest images,"Trimming The Tree", available at Elphine House Australia that is designed by Elisabeth Bell. It has been such a privilege and a dream come true for me to be a designer for these awesome stamps. I so appreciate the opportunity to have been on such an awesome team with so many fantastic designers. It is with a lot of sadness to tell you that I have stepped down from the team due to my husband's illness (Alzheimer's) and my inability to stay focused long enough to design on a regular basis.
I didn't have time to get a card made but I did get this adorable image colored with Copics and wanted to be sure to share it with you. You can get this cutie HERE along with several other adorable images by Elisabeth Bell.
The challenge this week at Elphine House Australia is Christmas in July. Dig out one of those gorgeous Elisabeth Bell Christmas stamps and play along. You have two (2) weeks to join in and have the opportunity to win some awesome stamps. Be sure you hop on over to the team blog to see all the gorgeous Christmas cards and inspiration created for YOU by the design team. They truly are fantastic designers!
My blog will stay active but I'm not sure just how much time I'm going to be able to spend posting and playing in challenges but you can rest assured that when time allows I will be here. If I miss your posts here and you post on Facebook I'll be sure and catch you there.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.
