Hello Stampers!  I squeezed in some stamping time today.  I made this card for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I started with the focal image.  I stamped and die cut the sprigs.  Then I cut a rectangle piece of paper to fit behind the focal image.  I adhered the focal image to the rectangle piece.  Then I cut a piece of cardstock to 5.25x4 and partially embossed it.  To hide the seam I added some linen thread.  Now I was able to pop up the focal image.  For the sentiment I stamped, punched, and popped it up under the focal image.  For the inside I embossed a strip of white cardstock and stamped the sentiment.  

That's all for now!  With the holidays approaching I will try to squeeze in some stamping time!  Busy, Busy!!  I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday!!
