Good Evening
I hope you've had an enjoyable weekend, my goodness have we had some rain!! And it's been so dark and dismal all day today.
Anyway, this afternoon I got my next Christmas card made.
The reindeer on this card is from a Jayne Nestorenko stamp plate, as is the greeting. I stamped using versafind vintage sepia onto watercolour card, and coloured using Lyra's. I just couldn't resist giving him a red nose! I added some Pinflair snow dust to his antlers and Hunkydory 'snowdrift' around his feet. The mat he is sat on is cut using a Nellie Snellen die and gold linen card.
All the different backing papers are from an issue of Making Cards magazine. The poinsettias are made using my new Marianne dies which arrived yesterday.
My card is for the following challenges:
Christmas Challenges With Sketches - Sketch (I really enjoyed following this fab sketch).
Jingle Belles - Reindeer Games - use a Christmas animal.
Winter Wonderland - Wet or dry embossing (the poinsettias are embossed).
The Crafty Pad - Christmas in July
Paper Sundaes - Christmas in July
