I have made another creation for the Whiff of Joy GDT call that Katharina is holding on her blog. This time I have made a christmas card with the beautiful Musing Melinda stamp. I love this stamp so much, it is probably my favourite actually, I just love the look on her face and her outfit! I used a gorgeous glittery paper from My Minds Eye that isn't actually a Christmas paper but I think it works well because of the colours and all that glitter!
I have stamped around the edges of my image with a Stempelglede stamp with antique linen distress ink and also distressed all the papers with the same ink. Melinda is, of course, coloured with copics and I have added glitter glue to her wings and her bracelet.
I really went to town with the flowers on this one LOL! I added a gorgeous layer of Prima poinsettias and leaves in the bottom corner along with some tiny red roses and a pearl headed pin for some extra luxury and then a white blossom and red roses in the right corner. The roses and blossom flower have been given a spritz of glimmer mist! I created a gather at each end of the crochet lace and added a diamond gem to each gather and a huge organza bow with the tails hanging behind the image to the bottom of the card.
and finally.....my usual querky angle picture but what do you think of the picture below???
I found this gorgeous silk rose in my wardrobe last night and happened to put it down near my card and it looked so beautiful with it. Maybe I've found a new photo prop? Thanks for looking!
