Now let me share a bit about my Christmas themed card!  

I created this fun and festive card using the adorable bunny set called "Your Gift".  I started out by using an awesome new blending brush (COMING SOON TO THE SHOP) to add some light blue on a white card panel.  I also stamped some of the tiny stars onto the background so that I could color them and add a bit of sparkly bling.  I then stamped the bunny tree onto a piece of white cardstock and fussy cut the image before coloring with Copic markers.  After it was colored, I applied some white gel pen to add dimension and give a bit more texture.  I then started arranging the card design.  

I thought a whisp of golden thread would add the fine ribbon treatment I needed for this card.  To finish things off, I added a few golden pearls and mounted this panel onto a piece of polkadotty paper (Pink and Main) and mounted this panel onto a green backing.  Next, I mounted the whole panel onto the card base and added the sweet sentiment.

Thanks for hopping over to check out my card.  I hope my teamies also inspire you to start filling your Christmas card stash box with some awesome new cards!
