Happy New Year ~ Stamp & Create DT Card

Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope that the coming year brings you much joy to you and your families!

I have had such a relaxing time this last week. Our Christmas was wonderful and it was such a pleasure to see the happiness on our boys’ faces on Christmas morning. Such a magical time and how wonderful to unwrap all the handmade gifts that they had made for us.

I have really taken time off from blogging and hadn’t even created a card until yesterday. To be honest, I really needed to take a break. With the kids being home, I wanted to spend my time with them and it has been so much fun. Now, I feel energized and my Mojo is flowing!

Probably not your typical New Year’s Day card but I really needed a change from all the Christmas cards that I had been doing. This amazing stamp was in my DT kit for Stamp & Create and I absolutely love the expression on her face! It is so alive and full of joy and I thought it was perfect to greet a brand new year! I used this week’s Mojo Monday sketch which was perfect for this stamp.

I finally had time to figure out how to use my Bow Easy…it is easy once you figure it all out and the bow is perfect the first time. I got mine -->here<--
