The Most Wonderful Time
This card uses a stamp from Penny Black (christmas friends). I have coloured the image using promarkers.
The backing paper is from papermania and I have embossed a strip of red card down the side using an embossing folder with my cuttlebug. I then brushed some green glitter glue over the embossed raised ares to add extra sparkle. I also wrapped a satin ribbon strip and some fabric holly leaves around the border strip. There are some flourishes and poinsetta flowers from Marrianne dies . I have added a satin ribbon bow with some holly leaves on top and some pom-pom berries.
The sentiment is from Little Claires and has been heat embossed with some red glitter embossing powder.
Promarkers used: cool grey 1=2=3, blush, dusky pink, cocoa, poppy, forest green.
