Believe......


I must be going down with something!!! I actually made a bog-standard card! I really don't know what came over me, but I had an urge to make a normal card. I've had this gorgeous stamp forever...now I'm definately NOT a stamper...but I make an exception for this stamp. The image is very intricate, with lots of swirls and snowflakes, and the Santa has a pair of specs balanced on his nose. I stamped him in green ink onto cream textured cardstock, cut around it and matted it onto red card. I added some glue with a Quickie glue pen to parts of the image and sprinkled it with glamour dust for a subtle twinkle. The papers on this card are by Dovecraft. 'Believe' was cut from green glittercard with a red shadow, then adhered with foam pads below the image. I added a bow made with fab red & green ribbon, a poinsetta and some punched leaves. A smattering of gems complete the card.
