Well, I know this is just a very simple card, but it's my first venture into the Thomas Kincade stamps. I've been too intimidated because of the coloring, which I don't think I could manage, but labullard has shown them without coloring, so I decided to try. The village is stamped with real red and I used the Sakura stardust pen on the snowy roof tops and sidewalk, so I hope it shows up, as it's very pretty IRL. Stamped flannel for the BG, layered the image on real red, tied on the bow/cord and added the word charm. My oldest DD and sister, are both big fans of his work, so now I've got something more personal for their holiday cards.

That looks great Sue!!! Lovely TK work! I've purchased a TK stamp myself, and while it looks great just stamped as you say.... I've not have the time to actually colour it... and it scares me!! Yours looks gorgeous!!!

Sue, your card is really gorgeous! TK I think is even more beautiful without coloring. I love your color choice, flannel bg, ribbon, cord and very nice noel charm. Your DD and sister will love this card. TFS
