Mistletoe Sprites

Good morning, It's time for our December Challenge at Stamping Sensations, the theme for this month is Fantasy or Anything Goes.

There are fabulous prizes of Lavinia Stamps for the lucky winners.

 I stamped a little scene onto kraft card using (mostly) beautiful Lavinia stamps, first I used a mask and created a moon using Pan Pastels, then stamped the Star Gazers using black Versafine Clair, next I stamped half wreath they are sitting on using a Card-io twig stamp and Lavinia Mini Mistletoe, and  mini Holly stamps, then the Christmas Mistletoe (a lucky win at we Love Stamping which I was delighted with!)

I used a white gel pen for the mistletoe berries and around the edge of the moon, a red glitter pen for the holly berries and added a red floss bow to the mistletoe.

This card could easily be a Christmas card, but it's intended to be an anniversary card for my son and DIL who will be celebrating their 10th Anniversary at the end of December.

I had a wonderful time in Edinburgh, such a beautiful city-thoroughly enjoyed learning a little more of its history and seeing some of the amazing churches/ palaces/ monuments etc I've read so much about. We only had time to scratch the surface and I plan to go back and discover more! So lucky with the weather too- milder than I expected and just a spot of rain on Friday evening. My daughter was the best company- and made sure she looked after her old Mum! So tired when I got home- not a long flight but still took most of the day to get home.

I have some lovely photos that I'll share later.

Thanks for visiting

Have a good day

Chris
