Artful Amarylis
I am not sure I had ever heard of an Amarylis before looking in the Holiday Mini Catalog. And then even after looking at it I am not sure I would recognize it as a Christmas flower. So I decided to make it "just" a flower for this Make-It-Monday card.

This is a two-step stamp that is super easy to line up. I stamped the outline with Smoky Slate because I did not want it to be that dark and then filled in the leaves and blooms with Granny Apple Green and Flirty Flamingo. The Thoughtful Designs Specialty Designer Series Paper was the perfect complement to the flower. As cold and windy as it has been the last couple of days I think I will sit and just look at this summery flower and dream of warmer days!!
Much as I don't want to, I am going to have to go out this afternoon and go to Washington to turn in the license plates from John's truck and also make a donation to the pet shelter as part of Jason's Christmas present. If I thought it would be any warmer tomorrow, I would just wait till then. I am going to start stamping up the left-over cards from Monday night, so depending on how long that takes me, it might be a good reason to wait till tomorrow as well. We shall see!
Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!
Happy Stamping!!
