I loved the color combination of today's Splitcoaststampers color challenge! The colors were Blush Blossom, Cool Caribbean and Chocolate Chip. I usually don't think of using Blush Blossom but I really like it when I do. Thanks to Emily, I opened my second pack in 6 years! LOL!

Here is the card I did for the challenge. I chose this design so I could use it as a tutorial:



This wagon stamp is one of my favorites because I can fill it with all kinds of things. In my previous entry, I filled it with clovers. Tonight, I filled it with my little sheep.

I began by stamping the wagon twice.



Then, I cut out the body of one of the wagons.



Then, I layed the wagon I cut out on top of the one I was using for my card and taped it down with temporary mono-adhesive.





Next, I stamped my sheep on top of the masked wagon.



Here's how that looked:



Then, I removed the mask:



And here is my finished picture, ready to color:



Then, to do the word window punch extension, I began by cutting a strip a hair under 1/4 of an inch wide.



Then, I stamped my greeting on it.



Now, because this greeting was longer than my word window punch, I threaded one end into the punch to round the corner:



Then, I flipped it and did the other side leaving room on both ends to add brads.



And, once again, here is the finished card:



Here are the details of the card:
