Merry Christmas everyone - I am scheduling this for Christmas Day ... and hope you will all be having a happy and peaceful time.
I would like today to show you the Christmas card I made for my darling husband ... it has almost become a tradition in our house that I make it on Christmas Eve evening, but this year I got ahead of myself and made it on Friday lol! I never publish it before Christmas Day .. although he never looks on here it just somehow wouldn't seem right lol!
I always really enjoy making this card, as it gives me a rare opportunity to express myself romantically - I just love choosing a suitable image and embellishments! This year I bought this adorable Wild Rose Studio stamp and Magnolia mistletoe die; and I used some Magnolia mistletoe papers left over from last year!
Stamps: Wild Rose Studio "Christmas Cuddles"; Pink Gem sentiment;
Media: Promarkers and Flexmarkers; polar white Flowersoft mixed with glamour dust on hats and snow on the ground;
Papers: Magnolia;
Supplies: pearls and ribbon from my stash; gems from The Hobby House;
Tools: large, small and lacy circle nestabilities; Magnolia Doohickey "mistletoe with berries" die.
