Christmas in August

Happy Saturday,

I can't believe it is already August. The summer is flying by. Here is my third Christmas card who knows I may be ahead of myself this year. Today we welcome 5 new DT members. Be sure to stop by and visit their beautiful creations.

We have a new challenge over at CMC "Pink". I chose Christmas Tilda with Cat to create my card.
I stamped my image with Memento Black Ink. She was colored with Copic markers. Skin E000, E00, R20; Hair and Cat E50, E51, E53, R20, Dress and Socks R21, R32, R37, R39; Shoes C00, C01, C03. I used a sharpie paint marker to create the polka dots on her dress. To the sign she is holding I added Shabby White Frantage.



Here is a list of the other goodies I used for my card:
Magnolia Stamps - Christmas Tilda with Cat and inside Magnolia Christmas Sentiment
Prima Post Card Stamp
Memory Box Christmas Tree
Marianne Snowflake Die
Toulle
Ribbon
Lace
Shabby White Frantage
Distress Ink
Lots of Flower
Pearls

Take a peek at some different photos of the card.

  10. Love those greens with the pink. It's a combination I wouldn't have come up with, but will likely try in the future.
