Christmas Sleigh Ride!

Have you ever taken a real sleigh ride? I haven't, but I'd like to! I envision the one I'd like to go on just how this card looks...a horse drawn sleigh, going through a park, while it's snowing outside! (and Jingle Bells playing too! LOL!)

All images used on this card are by DRS Designs. The sentiment and snowflake background stamps used on this card are some of the new Christmas images just released last week.

The image is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and I blended the colors with Gamsol. I used light blue chalk on the sky background, stamped the sentiment there in black ink, and then used light blue ink to stamp the snowflakes over the sentiment. Next, I used Shimmerz on the Sleigh and white Glitter Glue to create the snowy ground.

While the Glitter Glue was drying, I used the Snowflake background stamp and light blue ink again to create my own pattern paper on the light blue cardstock that I used to mat the image. Once the image was dry I used a decorative corner punch on all 4 corners of the image and the red cardstock I used to mat it.

The matted image is adhere to the snowflake paper with 3D-Dots for added Dimension. I added the ribbon and brads and assembled the card as shown.

This finished card size measures 6" x 6".
