Christmas Greetings
I keep posting "my last Christmas card", and then someone asks me to make another. This is possably my last one.
It didn't take me long to make. I only used one layer of paper and did some matting using Centura Pearl with red card. The paper is Magnolia and the stamp is Lili of the Valley. Although I have had this paper a long time, it has never been used and now I love it so much!
As usual I have stitched all the card and added Wild Orchid roses and holly leaves.
The ribbon is from the Ribbon Girls and I just coloured a pearl brad with a Copic marker and slipped on a little holly charm, which also hasn't seen the light of day before.
The sentiment is from a Whimsy Stamps Christmas set.
I love this little scene. I used my Copic pens and just a little Glamour Dust to add some sparkle. I always reach for a Lili of the Valley stamp when I need a quick card because they are so easy to colour.
Hope your preparations are going well.
I've just got to buy the food ( and replace the kiddies choc's I've eaten) and I think I'm just about done.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful Chris I love this image, such a big fan of LOTV myself, I know what you mean about Christmas cards they are lovely but it does get a little too much in such a short time.
