I created this card for the challenge at Impression Obsession. I've used whimsical stamps that are designed by Hannah Davies. I thought these two love birds look like they are celebrating the holidays together as the challenge is 'celebrating the holidays' . And for a change I've used red & green (& blue) !
Impression Obsession Stamps: Snowflake C10003, Birds on Holly F10002, & Merry Christmas B10011.
Spellbinder Die: S4-366
I created the background with Pool, Azure & Silver Smooch Inks. I over stamped with the snowflake using Smokey Gray Versafine Ink.
I embossed the cute Birds on Holly and Merry Christmas with Black and used my Tombows to colour. I stamped on watercolour paper so I could use a brush with water direct to the paper. I added stickles for highlights.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day !
