For today's TLC: Magical Masking Tape technique, but make it a plaid.
I used painter's tape for my bg onto glossy cs. For the cherry, I cut the strip in half. I just got this hedgehog stamp yesterday for .30 cents at an antique store. I water colored the image with an aqua painter and ink pads and then fussy cut. They are popped up over some "snow" (wish you could see the depth), embossed & glimmer paper. I added a small bow at the bottom. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta
*Edit: I went back and used my white gel pen to add lines and cross hatch marks on the dark green strips. Also added a few white sequins. I'm happier with the added white~

I love your jumbo plaid - must try this tomorrow. Your bargain hedgehog stamp is adorable, and coloured perfectly. I love your garden background too ... always worth a gaze x

You have given that sweet stamp new life on this adorable card, and what a bargain. I am an antique so I probably have this one somewhere in my massive collection of Christmas stamps. LOL

Really like your plaid...it looks distressed and very rustic. Like how you did the thin strip with the red. Great addition with the blingy snow. Cute image of two timeless hedgehogs. TFS
