It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! I've been singing this all week/weekend long! Even though October has arrived, I'm in full-on Christmas mode! That being said, I sure hope I get some time to make some more Halloween and autumn cards! I've definitely not gotten my fill!
I'm sharing this Christmas design over on the Pinkfresh Studio Blog today and here as well. I've been dying to get this new Pop Out Folk Christmas cling stamp set inky and I had so much fun making this card!
The images are colored very simply using an assortment of alcohol markers. I love the cute folk details that make these images so sweet! They remind me of hand piped iced gingerbread cookies.
I heat embossed the sentiment, which is from the Tree Trimming Friends stamp set, and wrapped it around the main panel.
I know, I know, I know...I just can't stop with the bows....they are so much fun and they add just the right amount of holiday charm! I made sure to glue the tails on a little bit tighter so that the bow wouldn't cover up too much of the cute design!
I added some coarse crystal glitter and a few Essentials: Jewels in between the image. I don't normally do things so symmetrically, so this was a fun card to make! Thanks for fluttering by!
Just so you know. All your cards and projects are amazing and beautiful!!! Really glad to see your work. Thank You for sharing it with us!!
