Christmas Wishes

Hi Liz here with my latest card for The Stamp Basket

we're still in the Christmas Fortnight so I've used this totally adorable stamp from Nellie Snellen called Hokey Pokey, wow how adorable is she!!

She is coloured with my distress re-inkers as is the background,

I've used some gorgeous snow white pearls for her skirt and detail of her hat,

you could colour her as I have  or just with a head band and the back is her hair but I thought I'd have a change and colour it this way lol,

The fabby Memory Box  flowering Christmas tree I've used I cut out of white card then coloured it with distress inks using a couple of different colours to get a different look,

Oh, Christmas Tree...(and another give-away!)

Hi all,

I have a Christmas card to show you today...my first this year...and hopefully, the first of many to come! If it was January, I'd be making a resolution to get my Christmas cards made early to avoid needing to pop out to the shops at the last minute...so to coin Kerry's phrase...I'm trying to get ahead!

I've opted for a very simple card using a gorgeous Memory Box Flowering Christmas Tree die and combined it with the lovely Papermania 'At Christmas Time' papers that are currently in our sale! If you like your Christmases to be traditional, then these papers are for you...full of rich reds, holly greens and gold stars!
