Our new challenge has just started over at the High Hopes blog and our wonderful Diva Amy L is asking us to make a tall card. I must confess to making either 5x5" or 6x6" most of the time, so it made a really great change... thanks Amy!
Remember to enter our challenges you need to use High Hopes Rubber Stamps!!!
The random winner of this challenge will receive the stamps Love Birds, Sentiment "Owl Love You", Bubble Love and sentiment "Filled with Bubbles". Perfect to get you rolling with the love season!
On my card today I have used a sweet Nutcracker image which has been coloured in Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I added some Polar White Flower soft to his feather and also some Mustard seed distress stickles for a subtle sparkle. The yellow dotty paper is from the Cosmo Cricket Early Bird pad and the red dotty paper from the Basic Grey June Bug pad. Also added half back pearls, buttons and check ribbon.
If you are looking to purchase High Hopes stamps I currenlty have 25% off all Christmas stamps. I ship worldwide too! Bunny Zoe's Crafts has 25% off all Christmas stock but be quick... it's going fast!!!
