BE Inspired 44

We are now approaching the final stretch to Christmas!  I hope you are ready!  My shopping is done and I plan on spending the weekend wrapping presents, doing some baking and generally getting into the Christmas spirit!  And to help me along, the BE Inspired Challenge at The Alley Way Stamps blog was all about a fun and colorful Christmas.  The colors inspired me to make one last Christmas card using images from Jolly Holiday!



The layout of my card comes from the latest sketch challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  I really liked the simplicity of the layout and thought the layers would be a great way to show off some of the colors of the inspiration photo.


One extra fun thing about the BE Inspired Challenge is that if you play along you have a chance to win a free stamp set!  All you have to do is play along with the challenge using an image from The Alley Way Stamps.  And if you don't have any stamps you can find FREEBIES here!  One lucky person will be hand picked from all the entries and one person will be randomly chosen.  Each will receive a free stamp set!

So come play along with us!  Good luck!
