Linus' Christmas

Hey Everyone!  

I pray that you all had a wonderful Christmas spent with family and friends.  I realize that this can be a difficult time for some of you but I truly hope that you were able to experience the magic of the season!  

I am back today to share with you a card that I was asked to make for a friend of mine for her husband.  I am always very excited to design cards for her to give because they are never your normal  cards.  This time she asked if I could make a Christmas card with Linus on it.  

Not owning any Peanut stamps I took my hunt to the internet where I was able to find this adorable colouring page image, and it was perfect for me to add my own stamp to. I then started with sizing the image and then I covered it in Rubber Cement so that I could stamp the Christmas tree behind Linus and Snoopy. 

I couldn't be more thrilled with how this card turned out.  It is so cute and I really hope that her husband loved his card!

Here's the image I used on the card...
