Aren’t they just . . . Adorable?! Sorry, I couldn’t help myself. LOL
They’re new and IN STOCK today at 7 Kids College Fund! Adorables from Crafter’s Companion. There are a total of six sets and each one is cuter than the last. I’ve used the set named Playing for this card. You can check them all out HERE.

These stamps definitely seem to have a vintage feel, so I tried to keep my card design in this same theme. This set comes with lots of fun accessory stamps ~ I only used the pine trees for the background. And, of course carefully added some MS baker’s twine as the rope for big sis to pull the sleigh!
The DP is by My Mind’s Eye from a couple of years ago; It comes already highlighted with a turquoise glittery embossing on all the edges. The problem is when you cut it to fit your card, you lose two sides of the embossing. To try to remedy this, I took my Tumbled Glass pad of Distress Ink and swiped it over the two cut edges, then quickly added some Embossing Tinsel in bridal and blasted it with a heat gun. I was pretty happy that the look was very similar to the original uncut edges! Yay.
I also added lots of the bridal Embossing Tinsel to the trees and snow using a Versamarker embossing pen. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to catch much of the sparkle in the photos.
Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you’re having a great weekend and staying warm!
