Hope you aren't tired of Christmas cards yet. Just a couple more days of them, I promise. Then it will be time for me to pack up all my Christmas stamps for a few months and move on to other things. :)
Though for now, I've altered up one of the newest Gorjuss Girl stamps to turn her into a little Christmas eve cutie. This stamp is actually called, Sowing the Seeds, and she has a little bucket and stars in the original image. I simply wiped away the stars and drew in an empty stocking for her to hold instead. Now she's ready to hang it on the mantle and try to get some sleep so that Santa will come and fill it with gifts and treats. I was going for a soft, fleecey texture on her night gown but I'm not 100% in love with how it turned out... I think I was a bit heavy handed with the color combo. But reds can be tricky so I'm not stressin' over it too much.
Most everything else on this card comes from the Making Memories Twinkle collection. The background is simply a page torn out of the journaling notebook and the die cut goodies all coordinate with it. Making this a fairly quick little card to put together. :)
Alrighty, time for me to get ready for work.
TTFN!
