Welcome to Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #293~Holiday.
I'm joining the Muse: Christmas Visions 100th Challenge Christmas Party, where Chriss has offered this lovely card for inspiration:
So...confession time. I made the focal panel for this card - The Ton's gorgeous Cozy Poinsettia stamps and dies - back in November, but it experienced the dreaded Copic-blob mishap - and with a deep red to boot! Because the spurt happened when I was 'nearly' finished, I did my best to remedy the situation and set the poinsettias aside, suspecting they would likely wind up in the recycle bin. Of course, I promptly forgot about it...until a couple days ago, while going through my holiday-themed stamps, I discovered them safely tucked into the stamp/die envelope. A little 'tweaking' with the colours paired with a bit of splatter to minimize the appearance of the blobbing and...ta dahhhh. Rescue mission *somewhat* successful!
I'm sad to say that this is my final post as a member of the Addicted to Stamps and More Design Team. To say my time here has been incredibly rewarding and supremely wonderful is an understatement! It was an honour to be part of the ATSM family, playing alongside some of the best teammates ever! Thank you, Kylie, for having confidence in me; thank you, teammates, for being so welcoming and supportive. I will MISS you immensely! On the plus side: I have every intention to play along in the challenges...so I'll end with my 'signature' closing:
See you in the gallery!
Thank you for dropping by!

Mishap or not (and I can't see it at all) - this is just stunning Carol! It is everything a Christmas card should be and a wonderful way to end your time at ATSM. It has been great working with you and I'm going to miss your gorgeous cards every two weeks. I wish you well in what comes next, and I'm sure we'll be bumping into each other in blogland.
Lots of hugs to you,

You tweeked perfectly as I can't see anything of a blooper. I so love poinsettias for Christmas and this ins just gorgeous Carol. Will niss you here but still Team Mates elsewhere. Look forward to seeing you 'in the Gallery'.
Gorgeous card! I can't see your ink blob at all - the spattering looks great!
Carol is just a beautiful card, love the rich colours. Congrats on being part of the ATSM team and keeping on stamping
Love the classic feel of your card. It's a good thing you held on to the unfinished versions, since I don't think that anyone will ever detect your earlier 'mishap'. I know I cannot spot it.
