Wishing you Holiday Cheer……

Welcome Everyone;

It is never too early to start making Christmas cards.  When I saw this Cardinal in High Hopes Stamps Summer2020 release, I knew I would be creating a Christmas card with it.  I have always associated cardinals with Christmas.  What the association with Christmas is, I’m not sure.

After the image with Copic Markers, I cut it out with a Double In and Out Stitched Square Die.  I added a gold border using some Peel Off Stickers.  Some Nuvo White Blizzard Glitter Drops and Nuvo Fresh Snowfall Glitter Accents to finish the card off.

Hi HH Fans;

The DT Divas are using some older Christmas High Hopes Stamps for the month of October.  Before you get panicky, there is still two and half months ’till Christmas.

For today’s card, I have used the adorable Glowing Spirit Snowy and Glow of Christmas, both from High Hopes Stamps.  After colouring the image with Copic Markers, I added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the candle, as well as some Nuvo Glitter Accents – Fresh Snowfall to the bottom of Snowy and some Nuvo Glitter Drops – White Blizzard to the trim on Snowy’s hat.   I cut the sentiment into phrases, even though it was printed on two lines.
