Merry Christmas

The background for this card was a happy accident.  I put the cardstock in upside down so I ended up with the de-bossed side on the top.  I was going to re-do it but then decided that it looked quite effective.

I  embossed the background with an embossing folder.  The two papers used are scraps from other November cards.  The image and sentiment are from Beccy's Place.  Colouring is with copic markers.

I followed this sketch from Try Stampin on Tuesday:

  1. I agree Suze... debossing looks just as good to me, sometimes better! Love your colouring of the tree, the shiny baubles are fabulous.
    Cheers,

  5. Great job of continuing past your oops and making a fabulous card. Sometimes our little oops leads us in directions we hadn't considered. Nice interpretation of our sketch. Thanks for joining us at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.
