A Skiing Gnome, a Fawn and a Deer.

Hi Everyone I've been busy adding to my Christmas stash so I thought it was time to share a few cards with you.

All the stamps used in the cards below are from Lesia Zgharda. Lesia is in the Ukraine and still managing to design and sell her stamps so please support her if you can.

The images are all coloured with pencils and I used a Posca white fine tip pen for the white highlights.

I am so in love with this little fawn, he's so totally adorable and fits nicely into the ornament.

I filled the ornament with Glossy accent to make it look like glass.

And here's mum ♥

My Santa is an old High Hopes Stackable Santa coloured with Alcohol pens and placed on the front of the card with a small Action Wobble. I used a Glimmer foil sentiment along the edge.

CAS Christmas Card Challenge - Silver and Gold

Hi Everyone it's time for a new year of CAS Christmas Card Challenges, Julia is our host for the first Challenge of the year and Lisa of My Paper Tales is our Guest Designer.

For my card I pulled out some snowflake die cuts and silver and gold card stock.

The snow we had over Christmas really made me want to play with these dies and make some super quick Quick CAS Cards. The Sentiment was created with my glimmer hot foil system.

I'm entering this for the following Challenges-

CAS Christmas Card Challenge Mid Month Reminder - Critters

Hi Everyone it's time for CAS Christmas Mid Month Reminder and also a reminder that it's our last challenge of the year and we would love to see you join in.

For my card I pencil coloured the cute little dog from MFT Pawlidays, and Glimmer foiled the Memory box Snowflake frame die and a JOY die from Tim Hotz/Sizzix.

After seeing Hidiko and Bonnie's beautiful foil backgrounds I invested in a Glimmer foil system myself (an early Christmas present to me 😍), I still have a lot to learn about keeping the dies straight but I must admit I love the idea of another use for my dies.
