My First Christmas Card Of 2013!

I couldn't believe it was April and I was making a Christmas card but there was a "Christmas" in the Happy Words set and I just couldn't resist using it.


I thought the Fox might be nice on a Christmas card so I coupled it with the Winterland stamp to make a really simple snowy scene. A bit of colouring with some ProMarkers, some inking to make the snow and a touch of glitter and it was done.

As it is such a simple scene I thought it could take a patterned background, so out came my Gelli plate. I cut a snowflake mask out of vellum using my Silhouette Cameo and chose a couple of shades of brown to match the fox.

I finished it off by heat embossing Happy Christmas in detail black down the bottom (it shows up better in real life than it does n the photo).
