Season’s Greetings by Mimi

September 1, 2011
by

Are you enjoying our new Christmas Mimi stamps this week? Kathy Racoosin is here with her Mimi card today… Kathy used a Transparent set, “Christmas Express” to stamp Mimi;

Kathy also used our new Slapstick stamp, “Holly Tree” for her background image;

Kathy thickened the tree trunk and made it longer to accommodate her front images. The tree contains bobbles which Kathy created by applying Stickles then large drops of glossy accents. Here is her card front;

And, here is the inside of Kathy’s card;

We have one more Mimi card by Elizabeth Allan tomorrow, be sure to drop by to see what she’s done with this week’s theme. Next week begins a special feature on Simple Stamping that we think you’ll enjoy. We’ll showcase quick and easy stamped projects that are easy to ‘lift’. You will not want to miss what we have in store!
