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.

Frosty Cup of Cocoa

The weather has definitely been right to enjoy a warm cup of cocoa. This is the first of two projects that I used this cute Sassy Cheryl image called "A Frosty Cup of Cocoa". The sentiment is from a My Favorite Things stamp "Heart Warmer Boy".

The paper is from Doodlebug Designs "North Pole". The snowflakes I picked up at Michaels are Recollections wood veneer. I added glue and sprinkled Glitter Ritz fine glitter. This has been my go to item for a lot of my holiday cards.

The image is coloured with Copics. I cut the snowman out and popped him up.

For the inside of the card I used a tag from Simple Stories Snap Christmas. I added glue and you guessed it more glitter to great a sparkling "whipped cream topping".

Enjoy the snow, snowman and my favourite winter thing HOT COCOA. Happy crafting everyone.
