Welcome to the Joyful Stars blog hop for October!

Here is a quick card I created.  I actually used the border stamp from the Stamp of the Month for October and curved it so it matched the oval shape (this is just one of the wonderful aspects of our stamps).  I used the adorable penguin from one of our Hostess rewards sets C1560.   I also used the snow flake stamp from the Frosted Cardmaking Workshop on the go which has a corresponding cut from our Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  This is just to show that you can mix and match our stamps.
