Make a Christmas Wish Tonight!!


Okay, ya know how sometimes a card just turns out BETTER than you expected that it would??? Well, that's this card for me!!!

I've been dying to play with this Follow the Stars stamp since I got it a couple of weeks ago! My friend Anna made a gorgeous card for a HH Challenge and ..... I HAD to have it!! Now, of course mine is nothing like hers....we have totally different styles (I told myself I wouldn't compare.....Crissy says 'No comparsies, no comparsies!'), not better or worse, just totally different styles.....although I totally wanna be Anna when I grow up!! haha!! Anyhoooooo, she MADE me get this stamp and I'm so glad!




I stamped the image on Wausau bright white cardstock, drew in the snow and used my new Nesties to cut it out. Then I coloured the image in using my Copic markers. The card base is a 6x6 square of Baja Breeze and the dps are all by Heidi Grace. I played around with the layout, stamped the sentiment by Papertrey on there, added some Making Memories snowflake brads and then broke in my new stitched Baja Breeze ribbon! I pop dotted the image and then added Stardust Stickles to the snow, his coat fur and the star!!

I'm super happy with it! *sigh* Happy stampin' day for me! And you have one too!!!

I'm also loving how you use the Nestie as a template and airbrush inside it...gorgeous!!!! I only have the Ciao Copics so no airbrushing for me,sigh!!!!But I suppose I could buy one or two of the sketch markers that I would use most often for backgrounds! See how you do that you are the consummate enabler,ha ha ha!!!!
