Christmas bears present - Lili of the valley

Just a quick post today, Was asked to make a card using the Christmas bears present stamp by lili of the valley. using the same colours and similar style to another card I made using the same stamp.

So this is what I did.

 

As you can tell I am loving the stacked snow flakes effect .

They seam to be on all my Christmas cards of late.

But the card was requested to have the snowflakes round the image.

 

I coloured this cute little bear using copic markers and Polychromos Artists Pencils

Bear : copics E31, E33, Black pencil

Hats & Scarf : R46 Black pencil also E41

Dress :BG72, Black pencil

Present: E41, BG72, Black pencil

Mouse :E40, E43, R000

Stars: Pencils dark naples ochre 184, cream 102

Holly:YG 63,G94,R46

I also added glamour dust to hat, pom-poms

The dies used are memory box Frostville

and Cherry lynn snowflake dies.

For the banner this is hand made no dies for this one.

This is how you make these. I found this on Pintrest.

which was very helpful and i think mine turned out OK.

Would have liked to used a banner die but don't have one.

so that's it for today.

I used layered die cut snowflakes and magnolia vine die cuts to embellish the corners and the usual suspect ribbon. The papers used are from cella door to which I added green glitter too. There's also a sprinkling of glitter to the tree branches.

Oh Christmas Tree - Lili of the valley card

Well there certainly a chill in the air my heatings on full time now, and the jumpers that never went away all year are now joined by scarfs and next will be mittens. brrrr, and I'm still cold sat by this window in my little cubbie hole under the stairs like a little mouse.

From the title yep you have guessed it

...its a Christmas card for this post. This cute little stamp is from Lili of the valley

and its called  Oh Christmas Tree.

I coloured this cute little scene with Copic markers, and polychromos artist pencils

I did have a list of the colours used but... I have misplaced it sorry.

Here are the cute little roses I made from the same card I used to matt, and layer

I added some glitter to edges once I glued them in place. For the fern type foliage I used the marther stewart branch punch.

And here is how i finished off the inside of the card. This again is a lili of the valley stamp.

The snow flakes are a mixture of a martha stewart punch and a die cutter from Cherry lynn -snowflake dies.

Oops Sorry I have just scrolled back in my blog and found I did a very similar looking card to this a month or so back ..lol even used some of same colour combos and papers.

Will try not to do something the same next time. Must have been a look I liked to do something so similar.. (think I should have passed theses off as a series than admit my mistake of doing two cards very similar .. you wouldn't have known ..lol)
