This is another Heartfelt Creation stamp that I purchased at the CK Convention. I just LOVE it! The coloring of the image is CASE'd from a sample that is in their gallery. I just love the glittery snow covered trees and houses. I will be playing more with this stamp, for sure!!!!
I stamped the image with Stazon Jet black ink and colored with colored pencils. I then applied icicle stickles and Glossy Accents on the image. After drying, I then cut out.
I used either Fiskar or EK Success border punch (i can't remember which it is and it does not say on the punch!). The dp is from a DCWV Christmas stack. I ran the blue cs through the CB using the swirl ef. I added white swiss dotted ribbon and MS snowflakes punches with glitter on them.
5 more months until Christmas!!! Have you started your shopping yet????
What do you think?

Wowzer Sistah. This is magnificant! I think you are in your element with those colored pencils. I cannot seem to get a handle on them myself, I prefer Copics. You picked up some beautiful stamps at the convention and I wanted to tell you I love the CB background you chose as it goes perfectly with the theme. By the way, I never get in a panic over Christmas. Many years ago Gunner and I decided we would make gifts and ever since, no PRESSURE! All year long I shop for things on sale and add my own touches. None of our gifts are extravagant but they are from the heart and in keeping with the spirit!
