It's Almost That Time of Year! - Annabelle's Stamping Studio

How Can That Be?

Is it possible that in just a few weeks we’ll be in full shopping and celebratory mode for another Holiday Season? Well it doesn’t seem possible but it is reality for sure. The few weeks that we have left to prepare for Thanksgiving are short and before you know it Christmas rolls around so fast that we don’t know what hit us. Let’s approach this Holiday Season with Tidings of Comfort and Joy!

That’s what this sweet card is telling us. Is there someone you’d like to give a small gift to or show your gratitude for during this busy time? Well this is the perfect card for that. It’s really very easy to make and looks like you put your whole heart into it.

As I’ve been telling you in my prior posts, the Christmas Pines along with the Pretty Pines Thinlits dies make for yet again a pretty card. I had to do another one just to let you see how versatile this set is. I like how it’s a little subdued with neutral colors but yet pops with the beautiful gross grain ribbon.

Here’s how to make this fun card:
