Still Getting Ready For Christmas


Well I think I'm just about on the home run with my Christmas cards, still have the last batch to assembly but all the components stamped and die cut, I still have to add finishing touches to some cards but getting there. It has been quite therapeutic not allowing myself to buy any new Christmas stamps or papers but I did manage to sneak a few cheap dies from The Works. I have had this little snowbird stamp for a long time, think it is meant to be a Chickadee  but I like to think he's a Robin.
Coloured him with watercolour paints and added some Nellies snow effect and some glossy accents to the berries. The paper was free from a magazine.  There is still time to enter this months challenge at Stamping Sensations  which is "Getting ready for Christmas" but don't forget your entry must be stamped as we are a Stamping challenge .
