Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps - Christmas Scene

I was once again scrambling around to get this posted before the SNSS Friday Feature challenge ended, only to realize that the challenge ended LAST Thursday! Ooops!! A NEW Friday Feature and Challenge will post tomorrow! 

I was trying to play along with the Winter Scene challenge, and failed miserably. But, at least I have my 2nd Christmas card for the year finished! {insert blushing red face here}

I used two stamp sets, Old Fashioned Christmas and Christmas Innies.

I stamped the sleigh ride image from the Old Fashioned Christmas set with black ink. I added some white pen for snow, and then colored the sky and snow with Copics. Simple. I went with an unexpected color palette, but still with a snowy feeling paper.

For the fun part...I have had this "paper kit" in my stash for AGES. I am guessing it goes back over 10 years! The pack contains some shades of purple and blue cardstock and coordinating printed paper. I purchased these items and put them together in a "kit" thinking to use them on a snowy day layout. Well, we moved to Southern California and we don't HAVE snowy days...so this paper pack has just been sitting! Well, I broke into it and CUT THAT PAPER! {We moved here over 9 years ago, so I am sure this paper is older than that! And I think that the designer paper company is now out of business.}

I went with the snow theme, by adding some snowflake buttons and a white jingle bell.

I added a sentiment from the Christmas Innies set. 

I hope you enjoyed my card. I am still in love with the color scheme, even if it is really OLD paper! Thanks for visiting me today.
