Congratulations to Pam Strobel aka Pammyjo as our Featured Stamper this week, FS799. The slideshow of her gallery took a while BECAUSE I fell in love with practically everything there! Pam is a master with punch art, 3D and collage. I definitely will return for Halloween ideas as my attention is focused elsewhere right now.
I selected Magenta Madness Sea Shells by Pammyjo at Splitcoaststampers to case for the Challenge because it screamed Christmas to me for some odd reason. A cousin and his wife recently retired to the beach and will receive this card in their Christmas mailbox to commemorate.
I used different colors, stamps and theme. I liked the design so stayed close to it. It was a fun experiment so THANKS Pam and enjoy watching how you inspire the Community.
Inside: a small red scallop seashell and WISHING YOU A WONDERFUL YEAR AND FRIENDSHIPS DEAR in the Spruce ink.

Love how you made a beach themed Christmas card for your cousin, Gayle. The strip of black is perfect and love the ribbon through the sentiment diecut!

Beautiful embossed background to your beach side Christmas card! I wouldn't mind trying a tropical Christmas some time. Love the way you did the sentiment tag/panel with the ribbon and bow. So pretty!

Wow Gayle, I love your spin on my inspiration card. I'm so glad you took it your own direction and were inspired to do so. Love your coloring and the extra use of the embossing folder to coordinate the look. Congratulations on having a Christmas card ready to go. I especially want to thank you for taking extra time to view and COMMENT on so many of my cards that I had actually forgotten about. I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Gayle, this is a great case of Pam's card. I love that you took the shell theme and turned it into a holiday card. It's perfect for any recipient who lives near the ocean.
