Happy "Newell" Year



Alright Bleeps, it's Friday! Oh how I missed you Friday! I'm always happy to greet you in the morning! I have been working on a few projects, so I did not get a chance to make a card for the blog specifically, but I can share this New Years card I made for SCS Product Review using JustRite stamps (holiday collection). I chose to customize the stamps using a play off of our last name "Newell" for the new year. They have a great collection of holiday stamps using wood blocks that are super easy to use and you can add your own personalization.

I hope you enjoy your Friday and hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with a sketch challenge (I need more practice)! Thanks for visiting today!
