Be Merry

 A busy day - listened to the Delaware River Basin Commission meeting where it was anticipated they would vote on a project I am fighting, along with some friends in South Jersey and just about every environmental group in existence. Well, sure enough the DRBC voted to approve this project, and it was very upsetting and disappointing to over 200 participants who were on the zoom call today. We won't let this decision stand. Delaware Riverkeepers Network, Sierra Club, Food and Water Watch, NJ Clean Water Watch, etc will bring a suit against this decision. The fossil fuel companies think they can plunge forward without a care for our environment, without causing damage to the River and wildlife, and without acknowledging the safety issues of millions of people who live along the routes where LNG will be transported day in and day out from Wyalusing, PA to Gibbstown, NJ. We will fight this.

So I finally had a chance to post this card. It's for the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge #138. Check out the sketch challenge design below. I used a new stamp I bought recently - Christmas Roundabout as the central image. For the background, I used one part of a layering stencil from NN called "Argyle Stencil" with Delicata Gold Glitz ink to create a design on the panel. The snowflake die is from Savvy Stamps, and the circles are cut using Spellbinder's Scalloped Circles. The sentiment is from an older NN set called "Christmas Delivery." I will also post it on the SSS Monday Challenge "Favorite Technique" since I love coloring with copics and die cutting.
