Now, onto my card!
The grandfather clock from the Nutcracker Sweet 3, was my focal image for this 6 x 6 card. After I stamped it and colored it with Copics, I fussy cut the image. The Holly Lace Flourish was perfect to tuck behind the clock to tie in the stamped holly boughs. Fiona's Magic Mirror was the perfect sized frame to mount this image. The "Magic of Christmas" was from the Nutcracker Sweet 1 set, and was stamped using the Warm Red ink, then fussy cut, and curled a little before adding it to the card. All of the patterned papers were inked with the Burnt Copper ink.
We hope that you are inspired this week - and remember to leave those comments! Also, we have a new challenge at the blog - Happy Holidays. That should be an easy one. Just remember to use your Cheery Lynn dies for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate.
