Let's see some wings (angels, fairies, birds)
Soooo, probably like some of you I have some NBUS (never before used schtuff!!!) in the Christmas department and thought I needed to use this cute stamp which is Woodware Clear Magic Christmas Hoot.

I stamped this little fella using black Memento and coloured in Flexmarkers. He's been cut out using my Lil'Inkers Stitched Square dies. The b/p was from my stash. I'd been using my Clearly Besotted Make a Wish dies for the card I posted yesterday and had some blanks lying around...........and what do you know - yep, the sentiments that come with this stamp set actually fit on the balloons! Lucky or what??? I added some bakers twine to the balloons and tied them together under the wings and popped them up with d/s foam pads. The corner dies are Cheery Lyn (the die cut pieces didn't come out fully on the first pass, but thought they looked good with them in so just glued the entire corner piece to the card), the chevrons are Die-namics Chevron Stripes and the flowers are Heartfelt Creations stamps and die, gold embossed onto red vellum. Final touches were some fluffy stuff for hat and boots and Glossy Accents for his eyes.
I'm also entering this card into the following two challenges:
Completely Christmas #3 Anything Goes and Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra.

ReplyDeleteIsn't it crazy that we all have stuff that we had to have but haven't yet used? I have a bunch of those on my desk right now. This card is very cute and I love the fluffy stuff on his hat. (Is that the technical name of it?) And the chevrons are a fun addition. Thanks for playing with CHNCC2.
