Sledging with Dad


For this week's Christmas card I found this image which had been stamped waiting to be coloured. I think it may well be the first outing for this LOTV stamp. I was lucky enough to win a voucher on last month's Penny Back challenge. I do wish the postage from the USA wasn't so expensive as I won a $20 dollar voucher but the postage was $12.99! As I have bought a few new things lately I decided to just get one die so I didn't have to pay any extra. They have so much to choose from at 123 Stitch but in the end I chose the MFT rolling hills die as I love creating layers of hills and I can't resist a fence die. I thought the sloping fence would be very useful.

A lovely card - love your rolling hills.
I agree about postage from the US - I won a voucher from a store but it would have cost me who lives in the US so she could use it - seemed to make more sense.
