MERRY ...

everything AND A HAPPY always

Today I have a Stamping Bella image to share, I treated myself with several others

which will no doubt be making a appearance sometime soon here on my blog.

This one is titled 'Merry Everything' and seeing as it is a snow globe I have made a shaker

card with it, couldn't resist.  The sentiment is included & heat embossed in Silver.

If you look carefully you will spot that I have stamp & cut an extra penguin so he moves

around in the snow!

I have used Kraft card blank, flowers, berries, sparkle pin, bark heart, doily, button, ribbon & branches.  The snow is a mix of Flower Soft & Diamond Dust.  Coloured with Promarkers.

The paper is from NITWIT COLLECTIONS

All the elements have been cut on the Silhouette and then layered up to add depth.

I had a go at making my own enamel dots and these two were melted from pony beads.

Nice & quick today, lots to do.

Wishing all the lovely crafty people out there in blogland a very 

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Quick Christmas card but elegant and classy don't you think.
