Snow Much Fun!

I have a set of Penny Black Christmas cards to share today using stamps mostly from the 'Snow Much Fun' set...plus a little pup from the 'Wintertime Cheer' set. I stamped the critters & snowmen on to watercolour paper, then coloured them using watercolour pencils. I made some simple backgrounds stamping some beautifully detailed snowflake stamps (from the 'Delicate Snow' set by Stampendous) using Distress Inks (Forest Green and Fired Brick) on to plain kraft card. I distressed the edges a little, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. The sentiments are from the 'Scribbly Christmas' set by Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous.
