Now for my creation for this week.

I decided it was about time to start on some Christmas Cards so I’ve pulled out one of the gorgeous Magnolias for the Winter Wonderland Collection called ‘A Joyful Tilda’. I have used some Magnolia papers too and this print is called ‘In The Snow’.

My image was stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with Copic Markers.

The colours I’ve used are: Skin – E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20 & R30; Hair – W7, W5, W3, W1, W00; Shoes – C10, C8, C6, C4, C2; Clothes – C2, C0, W5, W3, W1, W00.

My image was cut out using the Large Petra Die from Marianne Design and I have sponged the embossed sections using Sahara Sand inkpad and a sponge dauber.

I’ve added a Memory Box die on the left and a couple of Magnolia snowflake dies. The smaller snowflake at the top is from the Cozy Fern & Snowflake Die set. My sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set from Stampin’ Up and I have punched the sentiment out using the Decorative Label Punch. A few bits of bling add a little sparkle to my card.

Here’s a close up of the image.

I wanted the image to be rather soft and blend in with the soft warm & cool grey tones of the papers.

Here’s one more photo.
