FTHS December Blog Hop


Good morning!  Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps December Blog Hop; our theme this month is "Christmas or any other Winter Holiday"...hop along for some fabulous inspiration from the DT!

As you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry.  One random commentor will be selected on each blog to win an image of choice from the store.  In addition, one commentor on the From the Heart Stamps blog will win a $15 gift voucher to the store!  

If you have arrived from From the Heart Stamps blog, you are in the right place.  My card today features Christmas Spirit Birdbrain, the December Stamp of the Month.  I just love Faith's Birdbrains and I think this one is one of my new favorites!  The image is colored with pencils and accented with glitter.  I wanted the Birdbrain to be the "star", so I kept the layout and embellishing simple.
