May I Suggest

Hello. Welcome.  Happy Sunday to you all.  Hope the sun is shining and the mojo is flowing for you.  The sun is actually shining here today but there's a very cold strong wind blowing.  Mummy hen is keeping the chicks snugly warm inside.  I did think she might try to take them out for the first time today but am glad she is sitting tight.  I know, I know, pictures!!  When I see them so will you.  I do know there are six, two yellow and four black.  Photo shoot planned as soon as they start moving around.  And the baby bunnies.  What baby bunnies I hear you cry.  Ah well, yeah, I haven't mentioned them.  Must get photo's there too.  They are so cute.  Palm sized fluffy cuties.  So, in the absence of sweet animal photo's here a simple little Christmas card to get the craft flowing. 

I stamped the poinsettia from Penny Black Wonder Collection on a white card, masked and stamped twice more.  At this point may I just say I wish I had coloured the first image before I stamped the next two LOL.  It would have been so much easier to work out which bit to colour ROFL.  I used my ruby Promarker.  Then I clear wink of stellar'd all and added crystal lacquer to all the berries.  The sentiment is from the same PB stamp set.

    It always makes for a striking card to POP out one color in an otherwise black and white creation. STUNNING! And I can't wait to see pictures of those babies.
