I keep getting christmas songs stuck in my head recently! I can't help but sing along with my internal jukebox which annoys my colleagues no end!
I made this christmas card today using one of my new stamps from the NEC. The company is called Indigo Blu and they have a fantastic range of unusual gorgeous stamps.
The one I've used here is called Bare Forest, it stamped beautifully first time with versamark ink and I then dusted it over with silver Mica powder to bring out the image.
Recipe:
Bare Forest stamp with mica powder
Cuttlebug embossing folder
Silver and blue card.
LOTV sentiment stamp
MS Snowflake border punch and single snowflake punches.
Stickles for the falling snow
Thanks for stopping by :)
