Christmas Candles

Morning and all Christmas cards received so can now post. The stamped image is from Chocolate Baroque, coloured with promarkers,  sentiment stamp is from Pink Frog, I die-cut the image with a stitched circle die from My Favourite Things. The background is distress ink smooshed onto the card front. Pretty flat and basic for posting.

Really beautiful set of Christmas cards Carol! I love the candle image with the poinsettia as well as the way you've done your background with the smooshing! I've made alot of pink with my cards this year as well which is not normal for me...I just went with it! LOL
