I managed to schedule this one yesterday before our visitors arrived, I thought it about time for another Christmas card! After a great start on making Christmas cards I got busy with commissions and projects and preparing for our next card class, which is this week!
This card is the little bird on a branch stamp from Stampavie, which featured in a few of my Spring/Summer posts. When I first stamped it I thought how easy it would be to adapt for Christmas, I think the transition from the little 'blue' bird of my earlier cards to this one has been pretty successful, what do you think!? The flowers too, seemed suitable as Christmas Roses. I coloured the image with both Promarkers and Flexmarkers and cut in out on a Spellbinders Teardrop Circles die.
The sentiment is an LOTV stamp, cut on a little Spellbinders Heart Circles die. I inked the edges of both dies with Spun Sugar distress ink and mounted my work on to a dark red card blank, then I finished off with some lush red ribbon with a green sheen and a button tied with Bakers Twine.
Thanks for stopping by,
