Special Delivery!

How about a little Christmas in July!  Today I'm sharing two new stamps from the Stampendous new release!  Featured here are Cling Special Delivery and Cling Christmas Background.  I love these images as it takes me back to my childhood in their styling.  I used to patiently wait for the animated Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer TV show as that was always a sign that Christmas was almost here.  Right after that Frosty the Snowman would come on.  Wow, those were the days!
So the paper I used also has that vintage flavor these images were calling for, it's from Reminisce and was an instant favorite of mine.  My card base is Bazzill and my images were stamped on ivory Neenah.  I also used a little Tim Holtz distress ink and some twine I "aged" with distress ink.
I love the Cling Christmas Background stamp and can already see some major usage for that one!  What a versatile stamp!  I can use the whole thing or pull out just one portion which gives me lots of options.  It's a simple but cute card and I do hope you like it.  Here's a close-up of my images:
