Another Christmas card to share today. For this one I used part of a stamp called 'Oh Little Town of Bethlehem' from Inkwell Stamps - I masked off the words underneath the buildings before I stamped it.
I created the background using Cool Peri Adirondack ink sponged on card and then overstamped with a small snowflake from my new Craftwork Cards wreath stamp set.
I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges:
Challenge Up Your Life - 'Christmas in Summer'
Totally Papercrafts - 'inspired by a song' (Oh Little Town of Bethlehem)
