Snowy Merry Christmas

  I am still working away on my Christmas card to do list. The weeks and days are flying by ....but I work best under pressure?...that's the story I'm sticking to anyway <smile>. I have a lot of people on my list who like snowmen so I have done a card for one of them this week featuring Snow Kisses from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.

I coloured this adorable stamp with Copic markers, hand fussy cut it and added some white polka dots to her scarf and mitts just for fun. I set the stamp aside and found some patterned paper from Echo Park and cut it to fit my 5.5" x 5.5" card base. I glued down the paper layers and added a piece of ribbon and a bow in the corner. I stamped the sentiment, cut it out using a fishtail banner die and hung it down the side of the card for something different and fun. The stamped image was added with foam pop dots and I added some sparkle with Star Dust Stickles on the hat and scarf. Enamel dots finish off my card.

It's Beginning To Feel A Lot Like Christmas

It's time for.......

Howdy - MichelleO here today - Guess What!! We are bringing back some older favorites!!!  This release is called "It's Beginning To Feel A Lot Like Christmas!! Some FABULOUS winter images to color up for the Holiday Season! For me I went with "Snow Kisses".

Sweet round little snowman enjoying some red cardinal bird friends! At least I colored them up as cardinals... lol I colored a bit country for this snowman. Matching up with a few FarmHouse Christmas Papers. I adore Country Christmas Themes - I sewed down layers with both straight and zig zag stitches. For my image I punched the corners with a Fiskars corner punch. Then I think I may have gone a bit overboard with Nuvo Pearl and Glitter Paints. LOL The trim on his coat and scarf, and then well.. ALL of him and the snow base. 

For my sentiment I love the High Hopes Stamps "Twinkle All the Way" I think a snowman can twinkle all on his own! 

I punched it into a ticket shape from EK Success - then I used a Copic to create a faux mat around the edge. Stuck it down and then used an enamel dot for the look of a brad. And those stars on the sentiment - well they were crying out to be colored yellow right?

Copic colors used -
