Three Candles-Not Fork Handles

Morning and another Christmas card! Can you sense the excitement in my post lol. The stamped image is from Chocolate Baroque and coloured with promarkers, circle dies from My Favourite Things and the paper from a pack I won but no name on the pack sorry.


 

Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

Ha! Your title gave me a giggle! Beautiful card. The way you've used the two circles is an outstanding idea! The black sets off the pretty image so nicely. Yes, I hear your excitement (not). I'm excited that I finished my cards for this year and mailed the last of them yesterday.

Lisa said...

The warm tones and beautifully blended coloring make the candle image feel so inviting, and the layered circles frame it perfectly for a festive design. The title gave me a smile and adds such a fun touch alongside the traditional feel of the card.

So admirable! Your Christmas card is truly beautiful. The design is fantastic, and the motif is so festive. I also really love your colors. They're perfect. And I think the placement of the image is great. It looks so nice because it's not in the center of the larger circle.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful Christmas card in the last Everybody Art Challenge.
I wish you a Merry Christmas!
Hugs, Uschi
