Merry and Bright ...

Hi again for my second post of the day!  this is the second card I made today and the first Christmas card I've made this year ... I might have to put some extra effort in if I am to have enough cards to send this Christmas.

Here's the card:

This card looks a lot brighter and merrier in real life!  I had problems with capturing a decent photograph ... it has been raining for most of the day and is quite dark and dreary!  I really need to find a way of taking decent photographs indoors and quick as the days are starting to draw in and we are on the downhill run to winter.

The design is inspired by this months sketch challenge at Happy Little Stampers:



I've used one of my favourite techniques - in laid die cuts - to create this card using my new Sheena Douglass stamp and matching die.  I've coloured the image with Zig Real Brush Clean Colour markers and highlighted the lights with a touch of Wink of Stella clear pen (not that you can see it in the photograph!!!)

I used:
Versafine Onyx Black Ink
Zig Clean Colour Markers
Sheena Douglass Perfect Partners, Festive Fancies stamp set and matching die.

Enjoy!
