I didn't bring any Christmas backing papers on holiday with me or my Christmas embossing folders because I just wasn't going to make any christmas cards yet, but I couldn't resist using this little cutie siI just cut a square piece of whote card, embossed it with dots 3/4 of the way down, inked with red ink(I've run out of red card here too!!) and used a oiece of ribbon to patition the embossing and plain piece of the card.
Side view so you can see the inside too!
This image is called Penguey 3 and it is another of Kelley Kid's digi stamps found at the Stitchy bear store. I have coloured it in pro markers and glittered the fur on the hat
I created the sentiment on my computer and punched it out, inked it and attatched it to the smallest scalloped circle nestie. The Snowflakes are Marianne creatable die cuts that I have inked and glittered and added gems and pearls to the centre
I will be entering this card into the following challenges
