Now for my card...this week I decided to use one of my favorite Christmas stamps..I just love this little deer, bear and bunny stamp and enjoyed making this card. I dry embossed the background using my cuttlebug snowflake folder. Colored the image in prismacolored pencils and added some stickles to the holly and berries and some embossing powder for the snow. The image is popped up on foam to give dimension and the edges are chalked. I added some pretty flowers from Prima and some ribbon and there you have it.
So let's see what you can come up with this week. I can't wait to see all your beautiful creations.
Enjoy your day!
Hugs,
Charlotte

About my "steeling habits"; It is soon to be christmas, and Santa knows who has been good or bad. I really want a Cuttlebug machine for christmas, so I am beeing my best! No more steeling from this girl I tell you - oh no! ;o)

Charlotte! Look at the BEAUTIFUL card! This is simply stunning! I love the warmth of the colors, and you've colored this BEAUTIFULLY! I could stare at this card for hours, it's so darn pretty! The embossing is such a wonderful touch! I have a cuttlebug and I rarely use it, but you make me want to bring it out and leave it on my table and use it all the time now! :) Lovely ... this is just LOVELY!

I can see why this stamp is a favorite of yours! I do love the dry embossing of the flakes in the back ground but equally love the embossed snow too, I can really place all those little creatures there. Beautiful card ~ Jane

ReplyDeleteI just wanted to tell you Charlotte that this is my favorite card ever that you have made!!!! That image is awesome (I am sure you know why I say that...LOL) I love how you did the embossing and the inking. It is just so precious.
