Last Christmas Card of the Season???

I managed to complete one last Christmas card that will go into my stash for next year. My card production has slowed a bit since I was given a nasty cold for Christmas. I do have a bit of time off from work next week, so I am looking forward to getting my crafty groove back.

 For this card I used a digital image I purchased from Your Next Stamp (by Omni Designs) called Whispering Merry Christmas.


I had a lot of fun colouring the bunny with my Copic markers. For the little bird, I added a bit of Glitter Ritz fine white glitter to the trim of the hat.

I decorated the inside with patterned paper and used a 3x4 tag from the Simple Stories Snap Christmas for the sentiment.

 Image: Digital image from Your Next Stamp by Omni Designs "Whispering Merry Christmas"
Paper: Doodlebug "Home for the Holidays" and "North Pole"
Dies: Nestabilities Postage stamp, MFT Dainty Bows

 Challenges:
Little Red Wagon - #217 Merry Christmas! Anything Christmas
Papertake Weekly Challenge: Pick of the year - My selection for pick of the year was the recent challenge of Christmas Creatures
Cute Card Thursday: #301 Anything Goes
Your Next Stamp: #7 Photo Inspiration










Stay healthy my crafty friends and thanks for taking a peek at what I expect is my last Christmas card for the year!

 Tracy

      Thanks Lorraine for you interest in following my blog. I have noticed that with a few blogs, however it doesn't seem to be consistent with all blog. I noticed in mostly with newer blogs like mine. I was able to follow a few blog from within my blogger account. I just added the URL to my reading list. Thanks again for the kind words. Have a very Happy New Year!
