It's time for a new challenge at CAS Christmas
My sweet friend Trina is hosting this month and she chose
Of course I had to find this stamp!
I think I'll get lots of use out of it and my friends will get to use it
in my class this weekend.
This is such a simple card. I inked the stamp with Brushed Corduroy
Distress Ink and stamped. A little touch up with a damp waterbrush on the
cottage and the hill behind it and a bit of marker for the windows and door
and a cozy cottage scene was done.
Doesn't it make you want to snuggle go in and sit in front of the fire
with a cup of hot tea, coffee or hot chocolate?
I'll hope you'll check out the challenge and see what our fabulous Design Team
and our Guest Designer Bobby have done to inspire you.
Then join us with your warm and cozy CAS Christmas card at
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

That is such a gorgeous stamp! I have to agree it makes a beautiful card especially using that technique. Now I have to have that one too (sigh). My wish list now costs as much as a house!
Looks fab done as an old sepia photo. Love the splash of colour to the door and windows. Hugs Mrs A.

Sweet winter scene, Bonnie. Love the little cabin in the woods. I'm sure the fire is lit inside and it's warm and cozy! It's a beautiful image and I'm sure your class will love to play with it. xx

A perfectly cozy winter scene, Bonnie. A vintage-y look with my mother's favorite door color.
A beautiful serene and cozy scene and it looks great in the sepia color.
Your lovely sepia scene definitely looks warm and cozy. Love the touch of red on the door.

Beautiful! And yes, I want to snuggle up in a blanket, sit by the fire, and drink hot cocoa all whilst watching the snow falling outside! (ok well that's all in my head)
I can see why you fell in love with this stamp, Bonnie. It’s beautiful and adorable all at the same time. You created a wonderful warm and cosy vintage scene with it... I would love to stay there.

Just love your cozy cottage scene, Bonnie - so vintage in that color and I love the other pops of color too!!
A small hut in the snow ... I immediately think of a hut in the mountains ... Winter in the mountains is beautiful, and you managed to capture on this card this magical charm.
hugs,
