Wanted To Say It With An Ice Cream

 Happy Friday friends!

I was inspired by the Bon Appetit challenge over at The Paper Players for this card...


...and I have used a digi stamp which I colored with Copic pens, Distress inks and Tim Holtz Embossing glazes to get a glossy surface.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

A Merry Christmas

 Hello there crafters!

This is my first Christmas card for this year. I was inspired by the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown sketch. I have used a piece of lace from an old sheet that I have removed and which I think resembles a fir tree.

I have also used a sentiment stamp from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Christmastime set together with white embossing pouder. The papers are from Dixi Craft Christmas Pattern/Red.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit
