Cute Merry Kissmas

Hi there

Today I'm sharing the last of my Christmas cards made in 2020, and this is the card I made for my other half.

This one was super quick to make and I used an image from another stamp set that was new to me this year, Christmas Plushies.

I stamped the bear with the mistletoe image and coloured it in with Copics, including the background, where I used a colourless blender to create the falling snow.  The sentiment was stamped below before die cutting with a pierced square die.  I then die cut some patterned paper using a slightly larger die from the same stacking set, adhered that piece flat before adhering the top piece on fun foam.  That was it, super simple.

Materials used:

• Stamps: Clearly Besotted - Christmas Plushies, Kiss Me Quick
• Ink: Memento - Tuxedo Black
• Coloured with Copic Markers
• Dies: MFT Die-namics - Pierced Square Stax
• Patterned Paper: Lawn Fawn - Let's Bokeh in the Snow

As that's all my Christmas cards now shared and considering the date, I'd like to take this opportunity to wish you all a wonderful New Year celebration (however you are able to celebrate) and all the best for 2021.  To be honest, it can only get better can't it after the awful year we've all had?  I'll be at home with a few glasses of fizz and a takeaway (if we manage to get one as I imagine demand will be through the roof!), and no doubt asleep well before the clock strikes twelve!  

Thank you all for your amazing support during 2020 and for leaving such wonderful, encouraging comments, I appreciate them all so much.  Stay safe and sending crafty hugs to each and every one of you xx
