Whiff of Joy Christmas Blog Hop!

Good Morning! Welcome to your next stop on the Whiff of Joy Christmas blog hop! I have been looking forward to today for weeks and am so glad I can finally share my card with you. If you are following the hop you should have already seen some gorgeous cards and your last stop will have been the very talented and lovely Jane's blog. If you are lost you can go back to the start of the blog hop at Katharina's blog and see the full list of blogs to visit.


I have used the adorable 'Wee and Reindeer image for my card which is available here from Whiff of Joy. I love the little Norma Fickel gnomes, they are so lovely to colour in! I coloured my image to match the Echo Park papers I sewed onto a scalloped red square to make a mini card.

The image was coloured with Promarkers and I added glitter to the antlers with a brown Wink of Stella pen before cutting the image out with my craft knife and adding a little pearl for the reindeer's nose. I added some sequin trim to the card and then added a Martha Stewart doily on the top to pop my image onto using foam pads. I then die cut a banner shape and stamped it with a mini sentiment before setting it with an eyelet and adding it to my card with twine. I added a wooden snowflake topped with a button as a finishing touch.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Your next stop on the blog hop is the fabulous Jeanette's blog.



Make sure you are leaving comments along the way as each of the DT have a prize to give away and there is a grand prize of a year's subscription to the Whiff of Joy stampkit! Wow!! I will be giving away a Wee and Reindeer stamp to one lucky commenter on my blog.

The hop is open until midnight (GMT+1) on the 5th of December.

Have fun!
Jane
