Xmas Card for Hubby

Dec31

Hi There again,

Thought I’d share the XMas card that I made for my husband this year. He thought he was getting a really romantic card when he saw the front of it!!!! He was wrong, but he really laughed when he saw the inside.Todd XmasF - Copy

To make the card I used Recollections – Winter 4.25 in x 5.5 in (10.7 cm x 13.9 cm) card for the base.

The deer are from Miss Kate Cuttables – Birch Trees with Deer. I used Cricut Design Space and the Cricut Explore to cut it out.

Glitter Paper is – Recollections Christmas Ink Jet Printable Glitter Paper.

I stamped Merry Christmas with Memento Ink.

For the inside – Used stamp from Hampton Art – Art Impressions – SCO715 – Christmas Reindeer Games.

Stamped image with Memento – Tuxedo Black ink. Coloured with a mixture of Copics and Spectrum Noir Alcohol  Markers. Then used Wink of Stella – Clear on the Christmas tree balls and earrings.

Cut frame out with Craftin Desert Diva’s – Fancy Frames.

Used Sharpie Gold – Medium Point for going around frames on both the front and inside of card.

Hope you like it!
