Be Merry - Stretching Greenery into the Holidays | The Stamp Market

I've been noticing the beautiful Holiday arrangements in the shoppes these past few weeks. Eucalyptus, pine, along with winter florals and berries....Not only are they stunning to look at, but the smell! O my goodness the smell. I so wish I could take them all..Really, I do. 

Instead, I'm infusing some cards with their very own dash of Holiday greenery! No shears or vases required ;)


And because it's fun to throw in a little challenge, of course I couldn't use any actual Holiday greenery stamps. Nope, a set that is very much an all-occasion design, seemed like it would be the perfect way to stretch my stash. This set was a part of the SSS Stamptember collab with The Stamp Market, and I so wish I could link it up. But I thought, it would be great to share this card, since I know many of you already have this gorgeous set. Fear not, much of the TSM stamp lineup would work just as well here...Like this one, this one or how about THIS ONE!

But really, anything you have on hand, would probably be delightful!


Of course, in the background, I used my favorite, Confetti Background stamped with a bold red.
I die-cut a peek-a-boo window, and at the last minute, decided to outline it. Not sure if I love it, but it was a little plain without, so it'll have to do! 
I scattered a heap of buttons around the card, along with sequins and a white string bow. 


I kind of like the home-y look of this card! And you know I always love a good supply-stretching post ;)
