I have a Christmas card to share today, made using stamps from the 'Snow Bunnies' set by Anita Jeram for the Colorado Craft Company. I stamped the image onto watercolour paper, added one of the sentiments from the set, then extended the snowy ground to the edges using a black gel pen. I coloured the image using watercolour pencils, then carefully cut around the top of the image. For the background, I embossed a piece of watercolour effect paper, from the 'Mystery Marbles' pad by Craft Sensations, using an old Cuttlebug embossing folder, then lightly sanded over the raised areas before layering the image on top. I matted it onto some navy card, then added it to a white card blank.

Such a darling card Helen! Love this sweet image from Anita Jeram. The background really shows it off with the beautiful, pearlescent look of the pretty colours and the sanding bring out the snowflakes. Great work!! Thanks for joining Jo and me at Christmas Kickstart this month. Loll xx
