CCC: Kate's choice: Christmas animals!

Hello there! How are you? I am a day early this fortnight for the Christmas card club where the theme is Christmas animals ....I could have gone on and on with this one Kate ...thanks for a great theme! I made 4 cards mostly using hobbyart stamps!


Hobby art stamps onto watercolour card and then I painted him with distress ink...I also washed the background. I then masked and stamped the tree ...one from paperartsy!


A hobbyart polar bear along with snowflakes! I used versamark to stamp the flakes and heat set white embossing powder before using distress over the top to colour the background. The polar bear was stamped on card ...I washed the background then stamped the happy holidays stamp from TH. I thought it looked like he had just eaten a big christmas dinner!!!


Back to a brusho background and tracy easson's hares...


and finally more polar bears from hobby art!

I hope you have a great day!

Hugs

  12. These are all so lovely! It is reallly hardto pick a fave but I think I should pick the last one as the sky is so lovely...it reminds me of the Northern Lights.

    You make me feel lazy. I only managed one, even though i have two mare laid out on my craft table.

    Our renters change over at supper tonight. Due to it being Easter Weekend, i could not book a cleaner. So it has been muggins and Hubby doing the cleaning. Of course it is the dirtiest the suite has ever been! Should finish shoveling it out just before supper. We have never had so much garbage and dirt...uggggh

  16. Awesome array of unique cards. Love that magnificent stag, and admired the way you've used that brusho background on the Christmas Hares! Very clever & cute. Each of the polar bear cards were adorable and your coloring is just fab! Also enjoyed seeing the repurposed & decorated coin can! TFS & have a good week
