I have another Christmas card to show you today. I wanted to experiment with distress markers and an aqua painter water brush. This super cute snowman stamp - "frosty Friends G289 was the perfect stamp to use.
I paired my image up with patterned paper from the Basic Gray "fruitcake collection".
Added a twine bow, a banner flag with my sentiment from the stamp "It's Christmas - D453 and that completed my card.
This would also make a great card for a winter birthday or a Christmas thank you note. All the stamps are available in the online store.
That's all from me for today so until next time...........
