Happy Holidays Vintage Toys

Did you miss me? Took me awhile to finish my card - got my hair cut and had lunch with a friend. Also made a Target run and picked up one of their ornament shaped trays (I showed the tree shaped one yesterday).

Here's today's card for the HeroFest Holiday Cheer Card Drive using the Merry Rockin' Horse Bundle. This time I added a few more of the vintage toys.

Supplies: Paper - Authentique; Paper Studio; Neenah
Stamps/Dies - Hero Arts Merry Rockin' Horse Bundle &
Stamps - Hero Arts Nutcracker Bold Prints
Other - Copic Markers

When I stamped/die cut the rocking horse for a previous card, I did a second one. Today I stamped & die cut the teddy bear and trumpet, plus the drum & blocks images from the set to use in future. Colored everything with Copics. The other day when I did a nutcracker background & die cut a rectangle (see it HERE), I was left with a frame. Used it on an A2 card with some Authentique paper behind for my background. Die cut the sentiment, shadow (hard to see but it's gold glitter paper), and outline. Assembled - done!

I'm adding my rocking horse card to Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero's October Challenge Merry Everything. Also to Darnell's October NBUS Challenge since my Christmas Holidays Stamp & Cut was used for the first time here!

Thanks for stopping by & happy crafting!!
