141- Peace Love Joy Card

I didn't have the stamp or the punch for the card I saw on splitcoast so I modified it with what I have. This is the best thing about stamping- you can pretty much make any card with what you do have. This is also the card that I first tried my crop-o-dile on- the eyelets are a bit busted but it was a good first try!

Recipe:

Stamp Set: All Holidays

Ink: Basic Gray, Riding Hood Red

Paper: Always Artichoke, Riding Hood Red, Basic Gray, Whisper White

Accessories: eyelets, corner rounder
