October Release Blog Hop with The Craft's Meow

Hello and welcome to my stop on The Craft's Meow October Release Blog Hop.  Today we are showcasing cards created with this release.  If this is your first stop and you would like to join us, hop on back to The Craft's Meow blog to get started. 

 My card today uses the Christmas Blessings, Christmas Lantern, and Holiday Poinsettia sets.  I love watching these new stamp sets come to life on my cards.......

I heat embossed the reindeer and the star image from the Christmas Blessings stamp set with Copper embossing powder.  I love the distressed look on the stamp and how it looks embossed.  The sentiment is stamped with the Christmas Lantern stamp set.  I used the Holiday Poinsettia stamp set to make the postal stamp image in the upper right corner.  Take a closer look at my card.....

The papers I used are from the My Mind's Eye 6x6 All Is Bright paper pad.  I added some seam binding that I dyed myself along with some sewing on my sewing machine, a Prima flower and a little bit of hemp twine to complete my card.

Here is a look at the stamp sets I used on my card today.......
