Another Christmas card front for CHA.....

I had already made two Christmas themed card fronts for Diana for CHA when I found out she wanted Valentine or Spring themes! Of course! That makes perfect sense since CHA is in January. I only had two card fronts done when I heard the news - so phew!!!

This card front uses #3098 Mini Tilda Hiding Gift from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Mini collection. She is so sweet!

I used Magnolia dp from the same collection as a background and SU Cherry Cobbler cardstock. A few gold pearls from my stash and this one was done....



Here is a close up look at how I colored her. I used Distress Inks weathered wood and tattered rose for my shadow, Martha Stewart Punch around the outside and Spellbinders Labels Ten around Tilda.



I will have more card fronts and projects to show you very soon, so stay tuned...

Blessings and Hugs,
Barb

    Fantastic Barb! Your coloring is awesome and I love the DP's. The punch border is beautiful as well as your heart sentiment. Can you tell that I love this card?

I love the little Tilda with the gift behind her and the paper with gifts all over it.. so precious.. just looked at my paper and yes I have it too, so guess I will use it too, but not like yours, I will try to make mine different.. you are only my inspiration!!
