All Is Calm

I got to use some newly purchased stamps on my card today -  these chubby little birds, the tree and sentiment are part of the Avery Elle set called Let It Snow.  I stamped the trees in London Fog and colored the birds with Copics.  I made the splatter with a Sprayza Pen and gray marker.
I'm putting this calm and bright Christmas card into two challenges today -   Merry Monday - to use a bird on your Christmas card

and Cas-ology - Cue Card Crisp -   I'm thinking a crisp cold snowy day.

There are a couple of fun things coming up you might be interested in:

 On October 15th I'll be posting projects along with the rest of the DT - using a wonderful fall template from Creations by AR

The Waltzingmouse October Pajama Party is coming on October 18th - check out all the details here so you can get some challenge cards made up in advance!!

Stamps:  Avery Elle - Let It Snow
Paper:  White - PTI
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black and London Fog
Accessories:  Copics R37, Y17, Sprayza Pen and Grey marker, enamel dots - My Minds Eye.
