I wanted to participate in the Edwin challenge over at Magnolia Stamp Lovers but I don't have many Edwin stamps so I though that I would get a head start on some of my Christmas cards. Who knows, if I start now I may even have enough ready by the time December rolls around and I won't be stressed about getting them out on time.
I have opted to mask Edwin and Tilda skating with the snow circle. I had been planning this for another challenge last week but never got around to making the card. The card is based on a sketch by Bev Rochester. I have used Prism cardstock and some older Basic Grey paper from my stash.
Edwin and Tilda have been coloured using my Copics and Prima colour pencils. I added some stickles to create a patch of ice for them to skate on and added some bling to the snoflakes around them. Afterall, it wouldn't be Christmas without a little sparkle.

Hi Carissa,
I just discovered your lovely blog today. Your cards look fantastic! I was wondering if you could tell me how you did the circle with the snowflakes and the little bumpy edging?
Thanks xx
