I created this card for one of my ten in SCS's monthly holiday card challenge.
I stamped the images on Gina K. Luxury White and colored them in with Copic Markers. Then I added some rhinestones to the tree as adornments and for the pet tags. Next I sprinkled glitter to the 'snow' areas to make them glisten like newly fallen snow. I stamped the brick wall backgrounder onto Ruby Red cardstock and attached the window panel images with dimensionals. I thought it needed a little something more so I stamped the sentiment on craft cardstock, punched it out with a circle punch and attached it to a black key tag punchout. I used a horizontal slotpunch on both sides and threaded a sheer ribbon through to attach it to the card.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my card.

This is awesome, Meredith!! All of your special little details really add up to one super card. I love everything--the brick wall, the sparkly snow, the bling-y tree ornaments, the adorable kids and pets, the great ribbon treatment you gave your sentiment. Really, really nice. This makes for a really wonderful holiday card--nice work

This card is just too cute. I placed an order with Eat Cake Graphics yesterday and debated on whether to order these images. I didn't and now that I see your adorable card, I'm kicking myself. Hmm, may have to place another order soon.

So adorable! Your copic coloring is sooo good! I love these images and the way you set them off against the brick wall is awesome. And the glittery snow looks just scrumptious! Great addition of the sentiment tag, too. Wonderful card!!
