Good morning, this fortnight's challenge at Fab'n' Funky begins today, the theme is
CLEAN AND SIMPLE,
chosen by our lovely Pat.
I made a Christmas card using a cute snow couple from Card-io Stamps. I stamped the image onto a square of white CS using black Versafine Clair ink- with a touch of red for noses, masked the image and card leaving just a strip to ink blend the dark blue panel. Stamped Santa and the reindeer in black, adding highlights to the reindeer with a white gel pen. I stamped and white embossed the snowflakes, then smudged a tiny amount of the blue ink around them (might have been better without this last step?).
There's more inspiration from the rest of the team over at Fab'n' Funky- hope you can find some time to join us.
Thanks for visiting.

This is just gorgeous Chris, I love the way you designed the strip to look like the night sky with Santa and reindeer flying by and those snowmen are adorable. xx
A lovely stamp and you designed the perfect scene for them to gaze at.
Fabulous Chris, I love how the snow couple are gazing up at Santa and his sleigh xxx

It looks absolutely perfect to me Chris. Love the panel and cute snow couple. And what better view for them than Santa and his reindeer. Love it!
Cute card Chris. The splash of blue and red really lift the scene, love the hats they are wearing too! Thanks for joining us at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge this month, Claire DT
What a fun card Chris. Great snow couple and design. xx
Such a beautifully balanced CAS design—the masked strip creates a striking focal point without overwhelming the scene. The snow couple’s upward gaze adds a lovely narrative touch, and the subtle ink blending and embossed snowflakes enhance the nighttime magic. A charming and cohesive composition that feels both festive and serene.
What a wonderful, happy and cute scene you created. Love it!
