Happy Ho-Ho-Holidays From the Both of Us

Hi Crafty Friends,
I made a Christmas card in APRIL! I wish it was Christmas because then this whole COVID thing would be over! I had so much fun making the FUN sky for this one. I used Distress Oxide Inks for the background and splattered with copic opaque paint, water, and Perfect Pearls. I finished it by using embossing paste on the Hero Arts Snowflake Stencil.

    I'm always happy to see Mr and Mrs Claus (waving hello to them) and that background is so fun!! I make Christmas cards all through the year because I'm so busy around the holidays that it feels good to have at least one thing off my list. My favorite part of Christmas is driving around the neighborhood and seeing the lights and decorations

    I love how 'traditional' everything is about your adorable scene. Everything we do for Christmas is traditional, but my favorite part is being with my entire family!

    Cute scene--I like the snowflake background. When the kids were little we enjoyed a birthday party for Jesus.

    What an adorable scene with Mrs. Claus bringing Santa a snack before he leaves on his Christmas Eve rounds. My favorite Christmas tradition is making all of my cards and gift tags, which I've been doing for at least 15 years.

    I love your adorable card and the skies are perfect for the Lawn Fawnatics challenge. My favorite Christmas tradition is watching Elf several times throughout the holiday season and a seafood feast on Christmas Eve.
