Krafty Hedgehogs

Today I have made a Christmas card using kraft cardstock as I love the vintage feel you get when you use it with Christmas cards, plus it's also my favourite colour.



The image is by by Penny Black and is coloured with a mixture of copic's and prisma's.  I have added clear glitter pen to the moon to give it some shine and some polar white flowersoft for the snow.
The papers are the dovecraft let it snow stack.  The Champagne netting across the middle is from Stamp and Create in America.
Finally the kraft snowflake is cut using a Marianne die from Maddy Lisa Crafts.  She has the best prices around on all the Marianne dies.  
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges :
Sketch n stash - sketch used plus the image I have had since last Christmas
Crafty Pad - vintage
Paper sundae's - favourite colour combo - blue and brown
One stop crafts - anything goes

Lili of the Valley Christmas card

This card is my very first attempt at colouring with my daughters Prismacolor pencils and I'm really pleased with how its turned out.


The image is Christmas candle by Lili of the Valley.  Coloured with prisma's.  I've added ice diamonds for the snow, clear christmas frosting that came free in a magazine.  The candle glows thanks to chalk.  The holly paper was a gift off a friend and the bow is made with 2 different ribbons with a flower button on top.
