30 Days of Christmas Day 7- Christmas Past

 It is Day Seven of Martin's Mayhem 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge. The theme today is Christmas Past. I pulled out another pack of fun  patterned paper and Paper Pumpkin Kit from a couple years ago from years ago for today's card. The ornaments on this paper remind me of those from my childhood. The sketch for my card is from Hand Stamped Sentiments #500. Congrats to them on this milestone! The first Hand Stamped Challenge I participated in was #396 in September 2022.
