1st Christmas

This is my card for this month's Crafter's Companion blog challenge. The theme is 'new beginnings'. So my card is my daughter Megan's first Christmas card.

The stamp set I used for the main image is Humphrey's Corner - 1st Christmas Stamp Set. I begun by stamping the image three times onto smooth white card. I coloured the images with ProMarkers.



I cut out one of the images with Lacey Circles Nestabilities. Underneath this image I stamped the greeting. I mounted this onto a pink Lacey Circle. I cut out the other coloured layers and attached them to the card with foam pads. I added Polar White FlowerSoft for the fur on the hat.



I used my Cricut to cut out Megan's name. I cut a pink and white shadow layer.

On a stepper card blank I stamped pink snowflakes using a Stampin' Up Pretty in Pink ink pad.



Using my Cricut again I cut a selection of snowflakes. I coloured half of them with a Baby Pink ProMarkers. The other half I added a layer of diamond Stickles. Once they were dry I added these to the card. To finish the card I added gems and a bow.
