Warmest Wishes from Curly

Christmas is near, counting down to 23 days to be precise!

This would probably be my last post for the year as we prepare for Christmas holidays and celebrations! 

Before I go off for the celebration, here is one last card I would like to share on my blog today.

And here is Warmest Wishes from Curly.

Stamps used: Curly, Cocoa Stand, Sweetest Season sentiment set


I blended some distress inks for the background to create a night sky and the greenish ground with some of my favourite distress ink blending.  And I added (again) the enamel dots from Ranger accents to create the falling snow.  There are many ways to mimic the snowy sky of winter but I particularly love how the enamel dots will give a slight 3D effects to the card.



You may ponder why the Cocoa Stand image has such a detail cut with the inside of the stamped image.  I used the PixScan function from Silhouette Cameo software to help with the cutting and I particularly love this function as it gives a more detailed cutting that the Brother ScanNCut machine. 

I coloured Curly and the Cocoa Stand with my Copic markers and adhere to the card base with some foam dots.  And to finish off the card, I added a very apt sentiment from the Sweetest Season sentiment set ~ Warmest Wishes!  With every cup of hot cocoa served from the Cocoa Stand, it comes with the warmest wishes from Curly!

In case you didn't know, all stamps featured on this card is from Purple Onion Designs and right now the holiday day sales is still on till 7 December, with all stamps at 25% off!  You won't want to miss it (:



That is all for now! Have a merry Christmas and a very happy new year!!!
