It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Morning and hello! Welcome back to my little corner of the world. Hope your feeling a bit better than we do over here in the dark cold country of Sweden at the moment. Tons of colds and flues. Not the most fun stuff. It's like having someone sitting on your chest when I breath and the rest of the family sounds like old steam steam-engines. Oh well, it will pass but it's the second week in the row now and I am so tired of having someone at home all the time.

Anyway, that doesn't stop the new fabby challenge over at Passion for Promarkers. This week we have the theme set to "It's beginning to look a lot like X-mas". Nice and easy as we have December here in just a week or so. A busy time of the year but still I have a bunch of these Christmas cards to make.

Remember that you have to use Winsor Newton / Letraset Markers of any kind to have a chance on the fabby prize for this week. Which is sponsored by Digistamp Boutique. The prize up for grabs is a voucher worth £10. Great one, right?

Ok here comes my card then. The image is from Sassy Cheryls. A bit different from all the snowmen I normally use from her lovely collection. This is by far my favourite image for Christmas, all time. It's a great mix of classic and modern santa. He is just perfect and I love colouring him in grey.


The designer papers are from Panduro, an old paper pad that was quite a good fit to this image. The card design is simple with quite a bunch of layers to add some both texture and fun to the card. I have decorated it with some metal snow flakes and I cut a few of them in the middle. Saving weight and mailing costs. LoL There is also a few brown heart shaped pearls. The stamp is my favourite mini text stamp from Gummiapan I think. I don't have the package left so not totally sure. 

Well then, this is all from me for today. I wish you a great day and hope that you will come and join us for our Christmas challenge over at PFP this week. 

Love n hugs
Marie
