A "colour therapy" card last night during a busy week. Images stamped on white card and coloured with Polychromos pencils. Some gel pen and glitter detail on the stars and ornaments. Liquid Pearls -silver for the trim on the robin's hat, white for the snow on the trees. I sponged the background with some antique linen and tumbled glass and matted it onto a square that was in my box of oddments - after adding the sentiment and spattering it with a little white paint.
For the base, I used a stencil and sponged with antique linen, then doodled the border.

Lovely the way the hand doodled border works against the more formal diecut. I have not used my Inktense pencils is ages - I should get them out. Great card!

Oh, what a tweet Christmas card this is! I could not resist because this is as sweet as they come Sabrina. I am always amazed at all of the techniques you put into your cards, yet they are perfectly balanced and not overdone. I am completely in awe of your amazing hand-doodled border! This is one fantastic card my friend! ~Karen.

Super adorable image and coloring. Love the way you used that frame. I have that die cut and hardly ever use it since I don't do many square cards. I really need to get it out and play with it more as it really is a lovely frame.
