Wishing You a Cosy Christmas

I've had very little time to craft over the past few weeks and I don't see it changing in the coming weeks, however, I did manage to grab some time to do some simple colouring...


I've used a stamp set by Clearly Besotted called Cosy Christmas, did a bit of masking for the stocking and coloured with Prisma pencils.  

Its very simple in its design but I think it adds to the charm and will suffice until I can sit down and craft for a few hours rather than minutes stolen here and there.


The sentiment is from the same set.

  3. Oh my, this card is stunning! The motive is so well colored, that I can feel the heat coming out of the fireplace. There is nothing else to add. The sentiment and the motive matches perfectly.If I could, I would send you some time for crafting. :-)
    Hugs, Sonja

  6. I'm sorry you are pressed for time to craft, but the time spent to make this was well worth it! I just love how you colored this and added the single stocking! The fire has such a warm glow and as always - your CAS designs are the best! This is such a pretty Christmas card!

  7. Your card really has a lot of charm, it doesn't need more. One can easily imagine the warmth of the fireplace and the warm feeling of winter time.
