MFT Warmest Wishes...
I am so super excited to be guesting today at My Favorite Things! I have a fun little CAS Christmas card for you today. I don't know about you, but I have been making more Christmas cards this year than ever before. Wanna know a secret? Shutterfly usually makes my cards for me. What? (gasp!) I know, right? Well this year....I may actually be sending lots of handmade cards. I am happy about that!
Today's card was so fun to make. I am not usually one who likes to color. I love a quick and simple card but when I saw this little reindeer from Christmas Cuteness, I knew I had to pull out the Copics.
I used Tuxedo Memento Black ink and stamped the image off about 4 times. After cutting out the adorable Comfy Sweater Die, I stamped it for the 5th time with the reindeer image. It was a super light image but perfect for hiding those dark lines. I used 3 colors of brown and colored in the image. I usually have trouble when things don't look clean and in the lines but I did my best to let that go this time. I love the watercolor look that resulted.
I added a little red pearl to his nose before matting the sweater with this fun chevron Doodlebug paper. Last, I stamped the sentiment from Warmest Wishes to finish the card off. Oh, I almost forget the rounded edges on the top. I used the 1/4" side of my Corner Chomper for that last little detail.
I hope you enjoy my CAS card! Hope you have a very Merry Christmas season! I'll be back again soon for another post! Thanks so much to MFT for having me!
