Merry Texmas! Yep, it's another new Texas stamp for the holidays! It's stamped in Adirondack Bottle Green - that's right. A Ranger product - still not a fan but it's the darkest green I could find. The ornaments are from last year and are embossed in gold and then stamped again with Encore gold in the background. Lots of layering - I'm not a big fan of the traditional red and green combination. I would have preferred blue instead of green but this is what following the Christmas rules looks like. Well, I guess real Christmas rules involve angels or nativity scenes but you've clearly come to the wrong place if that's what you're looking for!
By the way, all the new images will be on the website next week. However, check your local stores to see if they have them. A few jumped on them like ducks on junebugs when I sent the samples out a couple of weeks ago so they might be at a store near you! Unless you live somewhere besides Texas. Merry Cali-mas and Merry Okla-mas just don't have the same ring to them.
Ewww....I'd be sayin' Merry Mo-Mas. Sounds like a bad disease - you're right, Texas works! Texas is here playing baseball! I like the color combo that you have used. The bottle green is sort of an evergreen shade. Great card! I have to tell you, I'm reading a series of books by Jim Butcher (The Dresden Files), and I'm in the midst of the 6th in the series of 13. The main character, Harry Dresden, has a sense of hurmor just like yours. Every time I read a bit, I think "this is what Mark is like, I bet"! Anyway, not relevant to your card, but my old brain might forget it if I don't tell you now. Have a good day!

Nor does Merry Indymas! Ha. . .Love the red/white/green combo with the gold embossed ornaments. I have a neighbor friend here who is from Texas and she is a stamper. I'm going to forward this post to her to see. Hope you are well! Best, Curt
