FS999 - Nancy has us doing a 'Blast from the Past' - we are revisiting past FS. FS101 was jaydekay. It was fun looking at your gallery. I kept going back to this card. I knew I had some gnome stamps, but I quit looking when I came across this Nutcracker set. I went with it. I looked up some nutcrackers for coloring reference when I decided to use this set. I colored using Blends & added some flat gems to the hats. All the nutcrackers I looked at had black mustasches, so I went with that. I also stamped & colored the corners.
Enjoy your time in the spotlight again. CONGRATULATIONS!
Thanks for stopping by.

What a super transition from gnomes to nutcrackers! You made excellent color choices and the flat sparkly gems on the hats are a wonderful embellie.

Fun little nutcrackers Bugzi. A few years ago one of my grandsons was completely fixated on nutcrackers - this made me think of how cute that was. Have a great day. Hugz.

Such a charming trio, each one with its own personality shining through. The rich Mossy Meadow backdrop gives them a warm, traditional feel, and your coloring brings out all the little details beautifully. The black mustaches and those tiny flat gems on the hats add just the right touch of character and sparkle. The stamped and colored corners frame everything so nicely, too. A wonderful nod to the Featured Stamper challenge and a delightful take on the nutcracker theme.
