Designs by Latisha Yoast

I hope all of my East Coast friends are safe and sound after Hurricane Sandy passed the last few days.  That was one monster of a storm. Today, some of the Avocado Arts Designers are posting using the Very Merry Christmas stamp set.  I decided to adhere some pattern paper down, and then stamped directly onto the tag.

Here is a companion card I made, to match the card I made yesterday.  I plan on making these into a set and giving them away.  So, I'm trying to keep them in the same color family.  Again, I am using Avocado Arts stamps.  I'm using simple stamping techniques, with minimal embellishments so they will only cost one stamp to mail. Check out what the other designers have created for you today, using this set as well.
