Another Christmas Card for 2010!


Here's another Christmas card made before we get out of this snowy, wintry weather. I'm starting to run out of steam with Christmas and have some really fun DT work to post soon, so Christmas will soon take a back seat :). I've copper embossed a Tim Holtz reindeer onto a background of tree stamps and sponging with Distress Inks. The card is matted onto copper pearlescent card and then onto more of that lovely Magnolia DP I've been hoarding. I've rotated this week's CPS Challenge sketch, added a Craftwork Cards sentiment and some ribbon from my stash. Again, I've stuck to my resolution to minimise embellishments to avoid all that extra postage on my Christmas cards :). It's not quite so bad when it's a birthday card here and there but it's quite a shock when you're posting 30 or 40 cards at once!

  12. What you have done with this is visionary. The deer prancing through the trees. Gorgeous. This doesn't have to be a Christmas card it can be anything. Very pretty.
