Here's my card for CYS (Challenge Your Stash) for February 2020. Each month we make a card for a theme given by a group member, using only items we have in our stash; no new purchases for these cards!
For this month, the theme is "Old School." I pulled out a Simon Says Stamp Christmas kit from 2018 and made an old-school, vintage Christmas card. I used the rubber stamp that came with the kit, embossed in gold on green cardstock. Then I sponged the edges of the base card, green layer and the ephemera with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink and distressed some of the edges on the 1917 calendar.
Jen, thanks for a fun challenge this month. I loved seeing all the different ways the challenge was interpreted by our group members!
