Sundays With Santa - Week 1

Happy New Year my Crafty Followers! I hope 2012 is everything you wish it to be!
Following my 1st ever sober Christmas and Hogmanay I'm feeling refreshed and raring to go :-)

Here is my 1st card of 2012. We are starting again at the Sundays with Santa Facebook Group. Week one's challenge was 'Anything Goes' just to break us all in gently. I hope you like it?

The image is a Sugar Nellie stamp called Snow Buddies and I've coloured it with my ProMarkers. I've added sparkle to their fluffy bits using Glamour Dust.

The DP is DCWV Rose Tinted Christmas. The snowflake in the corner is cut using a Marianne Creatables die and everything else is from my stash.

Here are a couple of close ups...

Snow Buddies

Time for another Christmas card. Its less than 19 weeks away now you know! Eek!

This time I have used my new stamp Snow Buddies by Sugar Nellie. I won it on the Sugar Nellies Facebook Group challenge for my Summer card (see further down) :D

On the Sundays With Santa Facebook Group it was Week 32: Snowmen, so this stamp was perfect!

I've coloured the image in with my ProMarkers and added Glamour Dust to the fluffy bits.
The DP is old Papermania I think. The 'lace' is made using my Martha Stewart punch. The snowflake is a Marianne Creatables die and everything else is from my stash.
