Wintertime Buddies


Today I'm showing you a Christmas card I made with DRS Designs Newest Releases.  I've used the fun loving Wintertime Buddies (M362), the Christmas Music Background (P372)and I created my own embellishments using the holly from the Joyful Christmas Mouse stamp (H351). 




The Santa and Snowman were colored with Copic Markers and I distressed the edges with Vintage Photo Distressing ink.  I stamped the Music Background on off-white cardstock, distressed the edges, and then sprayed it with Glimmer Mist, before crumpling it up in a ball to create the vintage look.   I love this background stamp and I promise you'll see more of it from me! I think it makes an very elegant looking Holiday card.  The hollies were colored, cut out and adhered in the corners of my focal image.

Here's a close up of those Wintertime Buddies.  Adorable, huh?

Make sure to run over to DRS Designs and check out all 12 of the new designs added to their Christmas and Holiday collection.  I promise you won't be disappointed!

Thanks for stopping by!

Vintage Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to the DRS Blog Hop!
If you arrived from Bonnie's Blog, you're in the right spot.
 If this is your first stop, please start back at the DRS Designs Blog to see the rules.  You'll need to follow the hop in a certain order to list your answers correctly.


Today, we're showing of the new releases that will be available this Saturday, August 21st.  We hope that you'll join us in our scavenger hunt blog hop for a chance to win some FREE stamps!  Make sure to click on the Scavenger Hunt Link to check out all 12 of our new releases after you have your clues!!!


This card shows off 2 of the new stamps, the Christmas Bells stamp and the Music Background.  I went for a vintage look by distressing the edges around the bells and the music.  I also used the Tiny Merry Christmas sentiment (A121) for the tag.


The entire card was also sprayed with a gold glimmer mist to give it a subtle shine, which you can see around the bells in this close up.

Your next scavenger hunt clue is:


• No Buddies around here



• Ovals are square


• It's Music to your Ears



Thanks for hopping along with us!
Hope you enjoy it!


Your next stop is Karin.


Have a great day and good Luck with the hop!!

Smiles,
Jennifer
