Approved By Santa, Sent From The North Pole

 Hello there, happy friday!

Today I have Christmas card to share using an old stamp that I think is from Whimsy Stamps...but I am not sure.

I colored up the image with my Copics and added some Star Dust Stickles, Glitter Accents from Nuvo and loose glitter. Next, I stamped snowflakes around the image using Distress inks. The sentiment from K-designs is stamped and then heat embossed. I finished the card with a couple of black pearls.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit

 Hello there, I´m glad you stopped by today!

I have a new Christmas card to show that I hope you like.

The background is created with watercolours and an old Holiday Words stamp set from Inkadinkado on Washbles paper from Creative Expressions. For the Christmas tree I used Tim Holtz embossing glaze Cracked Pistachio. I stamped the sentiment and gold heat embossed it. The sentiment and the image is from Stampin Up´s There´s a merry Christmas in the making. I colored the image with my Copics, then I cut it out by hand and adhered it with foam tape. For the banner I used Marianne Designs Collectables stamp and die set. I also added a silver star sequin and Diamond/Star Dust Stickles.

As always thanks so much for the visit!

Hugs, Birgit
