Dasher Magic


On Dasher, On Dancer!

I know that the fuss is usually about Rudolph, but our Dasher stamp is just the best! I love his dream-like swirly antlers and I've teamed them up with the flourish from "Priceless" and the Peace, Love, and Joy stamp from All Holidays. A little Dazzling Diamonds and a little bling and it's ready to go! I'm submitting this card to Pals Paper Arts PPA19 at http://www.palspaperarts.com/
