If you're like me, you might be still trying to sneak in a few more Christmas cards. I can't get enough of the adorable Christmas images released earlier this year from Stampavie. I keep pulling them out to make more cards. For the card I'm sharing today, I used Penny Johnson's adorable Snowy Cuddles image. I love snowmen and this is such a cute image!
I paired the image with some patterned papers from October Afternoon's Good Cheer line. (Love these papers! I think I need more. lol) I colored the image with copic markers that coordinate with my patterned papers.
I used these colors to color my image: R30, R32, R29, R46, R89, YG17, G28, C1, C3, W3, W5, W7, W9, YR12, YR14, YR18, B000, B01. Then, I added lots of stitching to my image and patterned papers. I added some Glossy Accents on the holly berries, flock on the snowlady's hat, and flower soft beneath the snowmen. I finished off my card with some poinsettias from Wild Orchid Crafts. The sentiment is from Catslife Press.
The kids and I are baking Christmas cookies today (Friday by the time you read this post). I am so behind on so many things, but baking cookies and frosting them together is a tradition that we all love. So, I will be behind a little more, but my kids and I are making memories that we will all cherish and that is what is important.
Have a wonderful weekend!

So very cute! Love the mix of papers and poinsettias!
This is so cute, those snowmen (snowpeople?) are adorable, one of the cutest images I've seen. I'm way behind this year & don't seem to care much, lol. I made the cookies that I make every year ---my kids favorites --so if I don't make anymore oh well! Enjoy your day with the kids!!
Really love this card! Super cute and as always love the coloring! I love your tradition of baking cookies sounds like fun!
This card is adorable. "Being" with your kids and making memories is much more important than being behind. Have a great time baking.
Hi there girl! Love, love this image...how cute can you get. Merry Christmas to you and your family Niki! I wish you and yours the very best for the New Year as well :)
Oh my my myyyyyyy! This is gorgeous. I love those snowmen and all the fun and gorgeous DP, especially that the majority of the background is that white music DP. The whole thing pops!
