Hope your having a great Sunday! I'm back today for this weeks High Hopes challenge. Our wonderful Diva Divine Kimmie is asking us to create a Christmas card in July. I'm really thankful for this challenge as this is my 2nd Christmas card this year.... whoooopppsss I had better get a move on and start making a few more soon or it will become a headache like last year.I had forgotten I had this stamp and this is Canadian Christmas Greetings. My image is stamped with Memento ink. Coloured with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I added a little stickles for some extra Christmassy sparkle! The Basic Grey Figgy Puddy paper is quite fussy so kept the layout nice and simple and to keep the focus on my image. I have used SU corner rounder. The Holly leaves are by Prima and I improvised and added berry buttons. To finish I have added a little gold raffia bow for some fun texture.
Over the last couple of days I recieved some awards. The first is from Shirley and Fern.
Also the I received the above award from Joycelyn.
Thank you so much and you are so sweet to think of me. Be sure to check out these girls blogs as they are uber talented!!!
I hope you can join in our challenge this week and be sure to check out the awesome samples from the rest of the gang!
Have a great Sunday,
