I have been busy making lots of Christmas cards! Here's one featuring an adorable image I won back in February from Doodle Pantry called Deer Wishes. I decided to use the pre-coloured image because it already looks so good! I inked around the edges with distress ink to create a vintage look.
I recently signed up for Inspired by Stamping's newsletter and I got some wonderful freebies - I've been using them a lot lately! Here I've included their Merry Christmas printable, striped tag, and red snowflake circle. I inked around the edge of the printable to give it a vintage look. I really like the colour inspiration this month over at Inspired by Stamping (see below) and this is my third entry in their challenge! I really want to win some of their stamps!
The designer paper here is almost completely covered but it's MME Sunshine. I used a few dies: gingerbread man and cat (Impression Obsession), and stitched flag (Simon Says Stamp). The poinsettia is from Recollections and the beautiful glittery ribbon and trim were given to me in a RAK by a very kind and generous bloggy friend.
I added a doily, snowflake button, twine, pearl strip, and snowflake charm, all from my stash. The 'Tis the season and tree tags were part of a Christmas prize package I won last month from Colette's Cosmic Colours challenge.
