*Family Time* Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!

THANK YOU for stopping by to enjoy our
November Stamp of the Month Blog Hop
featuring this month's SOTM:
Family Time S1911

If you've just arrived here from
then you are on the correct path.

Today I'm sharing two standard-size cards I created
using the SOTM and patterned papers from
THREE different new paper collections...
Cedar and Pine, Holly Jolly, and the Mix-in's,
patterned papers that can be seen HERE!

So you thought this was a Fall/Thanksgiving

themed stamp set? Challenge accepted!!

My featured technique today is:
Ink Streaking
Simply swipe or slide your stamp side-ways
 on the surface of your ink pad, to achieve the
streaked lines across your image when stamped.
To create the poinsettia, I also rolled the outside
edges of the petals on my Candy Apple ink pad
after swiping the stamp across the pad the first time.
Ink colors I used here include:
Intense Black, Candy Apple, Evergreen, and Toffee.
I also used the Cedar & Pine - Cardmaking
(Nutcracker) stamp set (Z3535) to stamp the word
"Christmas" and to stamp/thin cut the holly leaves
I also added to the Christmas Blessings card.





I am the last blogger participating in this blog hop.
If you're just starting out or want to continue on
to see more creativity using this stamp set,
you'll want to begin by visiting

These cards have a country feel to them. I always try to avoid the swiping lines but I love that you have incorporated them in your design. So pretty!

Beautiful cards Jen! I love the folk art feel I get from them. I too am very fond of the Christmas Blessings version.
