Good Morning Friends,
I hope your December is off to a wonderful start. It's a busy time but I love every minute of it. The house is decorated but I still have cards to make and a few last minute gifts. Today's PCW Design Team project is another that I'll add to my Christmas card inventory. I've used the Cardinal on Branch digital stamp from Paper Crafting World.
All of the supplies used on this card are from my stash. I colored the image with Copic markers and then added a marbleized background using B0000, B000, G000 and the blender pen. I'm taking an online class from Marie Gamber at Color Me Creative. It's all background techniques and this is the first in the series. I love the way adding a background brings even more attention to the focal image.
Our PCW leader, Melin is one again presenting her 25 Days of Christmas and Year Round Crafting.
She's sharing some amazing projects along with freebies throughout the event. Be sure to visit her at
I'd like to enter this card in the Scrapping Everyday Miracles Christmas challenge.
