Green and Orange Christmas Joy

I'm finally getting a start on my Christmas cards this year, unlike last year when I was in a mad rush to get them done.

This image is from Bugaboo Digi Stamps, Christmas Words - Joy.  This image is perfect for quick coloring and simple to add to any background.  I colored the images with Copic markers and applied glossy accents to add some dimension.

I added faux stitching around the border and finished it off with twine, button and sequins.  The background paper is from the North Pole collection by Doodlebug Design Inc.

Unlike drawing in faux stitching like the card above, I used my stitched border diecut on this card.  The background paper is from the 6" x 6" paper pad Really Rainbow Christmas by Lawn Fawn. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope I have provided you with some Christmas inspiration!

This darling image is Mr. Gnome.  I colored him up with my Copic Markers using all "E" colors.  I added some faux stitching on all the edges of the paper from the et cetera Collection by Bo Bunny.

The sentiment is computer generated and popped it in a flattened bottle cap and topped it with and acrylic cabochans both by Bottle Cap Inc.  I couldn't resist adding a Woody's bottlecap since it was a perfect color match!
