Another Christmas Card

 

I made another Christmas card with the cute Tilda Angel from Magnolia Stamps - the same image as on yesterday's card.  I had stamped several images so colored her to match the challenge at The Merry Monday Christmas Card Club #73 challenge - use red, green and kraft with a choice of ribbon, twine or burlap.  She is stamped on X-Press It Blending Card with Mememto Tuxedo Black ink, and colored with Copics.  I paper-pieced her dress with a piece of Crumb Cake DSP.  I added distress stickles to her wings, which doesn't show up in the photo.  I cut her out with Spellbinders Classic Ovals and matted her on a Large Scallop Oval.  I inked around the image panel with Crumb Cake ink while it was still in the die.  The tag is punched with a McGill punch and the sentiment is from MFT's Christmas Ornaments set.  I made a small slit around her hand and glued the twine under it - so she would be holding the tag and mounted both with foam tape.  I also wrapped the twine around the red DSP in a criss-cross pattern.

 I used SU Riding Hood Red CS for the card base and Crumb Cake (kraft) CS for the mats. The DSP is from Recollections Festivites 6x6 pad.

 

 

I am also linking my card to the following:

Merry Christmas for Freshly Made Sketches 101

 

 

I used Freshly Made Sketches 101 to make another Christmas card for my collection.

I stamped this cute Magnolia Angel on X-Press It Blending Card with Mememto Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with Copics.  I paper-pieced her dress with some DSP from SU Tea For Two and used the Baha Breeze marker for the trim on her dress.  I also added some distress stickles to her wings.   I used a piece of the same DSP and Baha Breeze CS for the banners.  The mats are all SU Baha Breeze CS.  The white is Canvas Corp Heavy White Cardstock.  The white panel is embossed with the SU Finial Press EF.  The sentiment is from SU Come To Bethlehem set.
