Hero Arts and Sizzix

Last weekend at Scrapfest, I picked up a couple of fun stamp sets from Hero Arts and Sizzix and have been playing with them this week. One of them is the reindeer, tree set and I love it! I stamped and cut a couple of reindeer and trees earlier in the week and they've sitting on my desk, waiting to jump on a card. Then this morning I saw the new challenge over at the Lily Pad blog. It's a bling challenge, so off I went, creating this Christmas card.



I had made a card awhile back with pink, felt clouds, so why not some pink, felt snow this time?! The reindeer are colored with copics and gems were added to the antlers for the bling factor. I also added a row of small, white pearls along the snowline and some X-mas Red Stickles on one of the trees. The background is stamped with Hero Arts, Holiday Background cling, which I love too! This card was so fun to make!

Thanks for stopping by today. I want you to know how much I appreciate your visits and comments! Have a wonderful weekend! :)
