Clearly Besotted Christmas card using 'In Print'


Hello everyone,

I hope you are having a good weekend, and managing to squeeze in some crafty time. It is time for another challenge over at Christmas Card Challenges and this time the theme is the ever popular 'anything goes', so why not join us and feel satisfied that you have started your pile of cards for next year.

I came up with this card using the Clearly Besotted 'In Print' stamp set





I used the fingerprint image and added the antlers to make a cute reindeer. I thought he looked a bit pale and sickly so I chalked on some cheeks and added glossy accents to the nose because Rudolph really needs a shiny nose doesn't he? To make him a bit more festive I took a little party hat from WPlus9 'Unforgettable' and added that along with a little bow tie. The sentiment came from another CB set and from Papertrey Ink Tag-its # 8. I cut the red frame from 2 rectangle dies and mounted it on foam tape to some stripey paper from PTI.




I couldn't resist giving you a close up of that shiny nose with the reflection of my window in it!

Why not pop over to see all the inspiration from my talented Teamies

Carol, you don't know how cute I think this reindeer is using the thumbprint stamp. It's new to me. And, his nose is so cute and shiny....just as it should be. I do see your window reflection. :-) I LOVE this card.
