It’s Jo’s turn to set the challenge this week and she decided to get us all started on our Christmas cards by setting the theme of Father Christmas. It was only when I got my stamp folder out and started looking through my Christmas stamps did I realise that I’ve only actually got one stamp featuring Santa, and that’s this Crafty Individuals stamp. The backing paper is My Minds Eye, then I stamped the lovely rooftop scene onto white card and added some water and ecoline inks to create a background. You can’t see from this pic but the moon and stars have got some glamour dust on to give some extra sparkle.
I'm sorry that the photo is so poor - I definitely need to get a decent camera - I've told my boyfriend that's what I want for my birthday next month so fingers crossed he'll get me one - I expect he's quite glad I told him what I want as he's hopeless as choosing things himself!
The design team really have come up with some amazing cards this week - get over to Daring Cardmakers Blog and have a look!




Absolutely gorgeous card Sharon.
