That week when quick! Only two more weeks until school's here in the UK break up for the Christmas Holidays. It only seems like yesterday when I started making my Christmas cards and I still have lots to make! Today is the day I start putting up my tree and to decorate the house WooHoo....
Over on Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge we have a wonderful new theme for you that has been chosen by the lovely Kate and that is using the photo as your inspiration..
A while ago I purchased some Nellie Snellen stamps from the Craft Den from the Dawns Stamp range. I simply adore these stamps they colour up sooo well..
This stamp I think is called "Dawn and Critter" I have teamed this little cutie up with a few flowers from Wild orchid flowers, some gorgeous crushed satin ribbon, American seam binding and fab Gold ribbon from Prima.
I just love this charm, can you see the little parcel hanging from Santa's sleigh? just delightful! and you can just see the American seam binding at the top. This is gorgeous ribbon and really takes well to being inked with your distress inks and glimmer mists. I just left mine plain for this card which looks equally as stunning.
Here's a close up of the colours I used.
Copic Colours
G29, 28, 24
R39, 37, 35,
Y28, 26, 21
E19, 18, 15 (I think)
Again I decorated the inside on both sides. The sentiment is a Molly Bloom stamp and works so well on the inside.
