Another Scrap Bites the Dust

Hello Nomad friends.  Happy Leap Day!!!  Button up your coat and button down your hat!!  It's a windy day here in Norway land.  This ole house is rocking and creaking and the cat looked rather alarmed a while ago when nature threw a particularly fine gust in our direction.  I have had this xmas card in the making for a few days and now the end of February is nigh and it's time to get things finished and squeezed into a final few challenges.  

I continue to whittle away at Scrap Mountain.  The base card is a super-scrap, some ex-packaging.  I added a layer of grungy dotty designer paper.  The cat!   Well, that one came beautifully stamped and coloured on the outside of an envelope many moons ago.  I have the dies but not the stamps, so I clipped it out and kept it safe for today!!!   I added a die cut santa hat, red and white scraps, and a real little ding-a-ling bell.  The sentiment, Stamplorations die, was cut from the same red scrap I used for the hat and covered with gold glitter glue.  I stumbled across the black piece on my desk.  I think it's a negative cut from a Marianne Design die.  Too pretty to throw away, so I edged it with Candied Apple distress Ox and matted the sentiment on it.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Off to beat up some focaccia bread dough.  Nam nam.  Hugz
