Christmas Tweats...

Are you thinking Christmas yet?  How about 79 days and counting down!  Yikes!  Where does the time go....   This also means that the weather will be getting colder, and we'll be seeing some of our winter feathered friends back again.....and snow!  Oh no!  Hopefully we'll have a nice mild winter like last year.


I am definitely not a winter person or a fan of snow, but I will admit it has one thing going for it.....it makes for a beautiful picture on a Christmas card!  This adorable image (Kissing Robins) from Just Inklined is a wonderful example.

Coloured with copics, I've cut it out and attached to a hand made tag.  The DP was so pretty that it didn't really need much else, just a few gems and liquid pearls to enhance it.  Clean and simple, and all ready to post!

A few challenges for this card:

    I love the snow, but it has to be real snow and not slush lol. This is a gorgeous card, that dark DP background is perfect for your luscious tag.
    Hope you have had a good weekend.
