Sending You A Little Christmas!

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday!!

Here is a card I created with some delish new goodies from my last MFT order (it's a sickness!).

I LOVE this new Pure Innocence Sending You A Little Christmas and I could not even wait to ink her up!! I stamped her in Memento Tuxedo Black onto the new X Press It Blending Paper (also from MFT but it must be out of stock) and colored her with Copic Markers. This paper is RIDICULOUSLY fabulous...if you color with Copics than you must try this paper!

I cut out and embossed the panel with Square Nestabilities and sponged the edges a bit so that it matched the patterned paper I used, Tinsel & Twig from The Girls Paperie. All of the papers from The Girls Paperie make me happy...I have to get some more asap! All of the cardstock, patterned paper, ribbon and pearls on my card today are from the Tinsel & Twig Project Pantry Kit, available from Taylored Expressions. Everything you need to create a perfectly coordinated card...love that!

I created the scallop border using the Die-Namics Jumbo Scallop Die and some My Favorite Felt Necessary Neutral felt. I love the warmth that felt lends to a card...it just makes me happy! Want to know what else makes me happy? The super sparkly snowflake/button combo! I {heart} the new Die-Namics Let It Snowflake Die and used it here to create my snowflakes. I die cut two of them, glittered them up and then attached them to my card with a die cut of the new Die-Namics Button Quartet (LOVE these too!). Some simple embroidery thread ties it all together (grin!) and I popped it up on foam tape. I LOVE how I can create a button to match any card...how FUN is that?

I now have a store on Etsy and this card will be listed for sale as well! Here is my new store:
(very original name huh?...LOL!)

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
