SN Miss Clause Challenge Card


I just couldn't resist buying a few of these gorgeous stamps and Miss Clause just has to be my favourite. I've coloured her with Copics and Glimmer dust. Faux Stitching around the Nestie and Stitched Stamp for the papers which are Cosmo Cricket. Snowflake sentiment, Brads and gems to finish. Click on piccie for a closer look. The sketch used was taken from this weeks Sketch Saturday and also fits in with Papertake Weekly (Fake It), Allsorts (Snowflakes) and Stamp Something (Favourites). Cant wait to ink her up again, who knows what the next card maybe!!!
Thanks For Looking
