The latest challenge is Christmas in July and basically it does what it says on the tin!!! lol
For my card I have used a new stamp which I absolutely fell in love with (nothing new there then......). It's called Kissy Time from Cuddly Buddly and I just thought this little robin was so cute. I've stamped using Memento ink and coloured with Flexmarkers. I added Stickles to his hat and the mistletoe berry. I've die cut the image using my new Stampin Up Framelits dies and I've used these for the mat. The bp is from my stash and the white snowflake border is a Martha Stewart punch. The sentiment was stamped in red and I've used SU Word Window and Modern Label to punch it out. Ribbon and poinsettias also from my stash.Thanks for popping by. I love to hear your comments and will pop over to your blog and return the favour.
I would also like to enter into the Winter Wonderland challenge Monochromatic and the Secret Crafter challenge which is Christmas
This little robin IS cute, Karen. What a beautiful card. I love your layout. I also love the Framelit dies - my favourite ;) xx

I just love how you've coloured your image. I followed the link from your Flexmarker review posted on the Flexmarker site. I've just received my first set in the post this week and I, too, immediately fell in love with the natural feel of the brush. I have been using another brand of plain bullet nib markers, but I find that my new markers are by far superior in handling and blending. So I guess I will simply have to buy more, LOL.
