Christmas in July 2023 – Day 28

Happy Friyay everyone!

Welcome to Day 28 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2023! Today I’m playing along with this fortnight’s CAS Colours and Sketches sketch challenge finally using a stamp with a story….

Back in 2011, I saw this fun stamp and cut reindeer set by Hero Arts and really wanted it but I had just bought another fabulous Hero Arts deer set which was quite similar and I couldn’t justify buying this one. I spotted it in a sale at one of my local craft stores (ah those halcyon days of bricks and mortar stores!!) a year or so later, but for some reason I didn’t pick it up….

Over the years I thought about it and checked Ebay every now and then….. and then two years ago a set popped up! My offer wasn’t accepted so I forgot about it again until last December when I saw it on Ebay and this time my offer was accepted! Yay! I’m not sure why it has sat unused since then, but hey, I waited 12 years for it, what’s a few more months?!

The sentiment is from a Penny Black set.

Thanks for stopping by!

LucieG.
