Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas with dog

I watercolored this in blue and purples for this challenge and added my daughter's dog to the bottom.

House Mouse popping popcorn

One of my favorite House Mouse stamps. I added a little gel gold pen to the popcorn kernels and used some Yellow Nuvo drops for the candles. This is going to be a friend's birthday card for January. I really think this could be made masculine too using blues or greens. Colored it with watercolors.

May this Special Season be Wrapped in Love and Joy

I can't believe Christmas is only 6 days away. I am just about ready. Presents all bought, wrapped, just finishing up last minute things before our daughter and grand-dog come home on Sunday for the week. I am very excited about that!

This card I did for a challenge at Splitcoast and it's called 3D Stamping, Faux Embossing and you can see it done here. It's actually very easy.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

I have a hard time making "splatters" so I finally bought Tim Holtz' splatter brush on Amazon and some White Picket Fence Distress Paint and it's super easy to make the splatters now. The brush is a flat brush and it is so much easier than a regular old paintbrush!!
