just a little bit longer, LOL!
Apparently I am in a little holiday groove right now because I decided to combine this week's regular Tickled Pink challenge to use stripes and polka dots with the anything goes Tickled Pink monthly Christmas challenge. That or I'm really in the mood for some yummy cookies! ;)
Either way, it was fun to pull out Christmas Ivy, who is always a fave, and play around with her early this year. I'm also thinking that I've gotten a bit obsessed with jar stamps here recently (you'll understand why come next week's SN previews... hint, hint, wink, wink!). I can't get enough of them and love having some in all shapes and sizes. Sooooo... when my recent PTI order arrived I was stoked to have a chance to ink this new one up and the Holiday Fillers made it too perfect to pass up pairing with li'l Ivy. Seriously, can't you just see her busy baking the day away and filling cute gift jars full of cookies to give to all her li'l friends? Yep, me too... Ivy is a real sweetie like that. :)
I pulled all my colors from this old Collage Press paper (glad they got picked up by Pink Paislee), I'm a total fan of throwing pink into the holiday color scheme every now and then so I was excited to finally cut into these papers. I tell ya... it may take me a while to actually cut and create with some of my more beloved papers but it is always so worth it in the end!
So if you would like a chance at winning this week's prize or to get your Christmas groove on and go for that fab prize as well, then why not play along? Don't forget that your card must feature a Tickled Pink stamp in order to qualify for the prize... these include: Lil Lolitas and Lads, Pinkettes, Pink Pets and Cherries. All of which can be found in the Tickled Pink store.

Oh Amy this is absolutely adorable! I do have to tell you that I am starting to become jealous of your awesome jar stamp. Just too darn cute! I love this paper that you have used and the way that you have colored Ivy up is just wonderful. I love her rosey cheeks and even though it felt like fall this morning and I am so NOT ready for that I am loving your Christmas spirits at the moment. Hope you had a great day. I only have one more full day to work and then I am off for the weekend. I don't cared if it snows, rains or blows all weekend, I am just going to be sooo happy to have some time off. Hugs, Lisa
