Christmas Kisses

It's time for a new challenge at Christmas with the Cuties and the theme this month is Cute Couples.

I used the adorable Snowman Couple image from our sponsor Bugaboo to create my card.

I coloured my couple with a combination of ProMarkers and Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens.  I then added glitter to the Snowladies hat and the snow on the ground along with some 3D Crystal Lacquer to their buttons.

I cut them out with a Sue Wilson pierced square die and layered them up onto some green card stock, I repeated with another layer of white and green card stock before attaching them to my card front.  The sentiment is from Kraftwork cards layered onto a Tattered Lace Charisma Frames 2 die cut from the green card stock.

Make sure you pop over to the Christmas with the Cuties challenge blog and take a look at the Design Team inspiration, we would love for you to join us for our Cute Couples challenge.

I would like to enter this card into the August Rudolph Days Challenge, the theme is Anything Christmas Goes.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated.

A Christmas Couple

It's time for a new challenge at Winter Wonderland and this week our theme is 'A Christmas Couple' - we would like to see two people and don't forget Christmas projects only.

I have used a fabulous stamp from Whiff of Joy that I won quite some time ago and had not inked up.  I have coloured my image with ProMarkers and used papers from the MME Vintage Christmas collection.

My base card stock is Kraft and I have added Glamour Dust glitter for snow and on their clothes, I also added some 3D Crystal Lacquer to the glass on the lamp post.  The mini scalloped border was die cut and I added card candy and some string from my stash.  The sentiment is part of the Whiff of Joy stamp set.
