Now, let's take a look at my project for Day 11!

These triple stamp cards are pretty neat and actually not that difficult to make.  I found a tutorial on Split Coast Stampers.  Again, my go-to stamp sets for this card was from The {Stamps} of Life:  wreath4me and trees4Christmas.  Since I used dark green cardstock, I also used Marcella by K Evergreen dye ink to stamp the wreath (no longer sold by K & Company), and I believe I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Barn Door for the words.  I also added a little bit of glitter for some shine.
