Pink Christmas Greetings

Hello.  Welcome.  Colour seems to be big this month in blogland.  We got pink, lots of lovely shades of autumn, the spooky halloweeny three and purple.  I haven't got to the purple yet but did manage a festive pink card.  Well, why not a pink christmas??



I made a cute little christmas scene using some stamps from two of Rubber Dance's brand new release, Textured Houses and Watercolour Xmas.  I cut the 'hill' using Stamplorations Snowy Hill Die.  Love the stitch detail.  I drew a faint pencil line along the hill edge and then stamped the trees from Rubber Dance Watercolour Xmas and embossed with red tinsel ep.  I stamped the cute single house from Textured Houses on pink bazzill, same as my base card, and embossed with christmas red ep, fussy cut and stuck it and the hill in place.  The sentiment is from the Watercolour Xmas set, embossed with red tinsel ep and matted on the same pink card.  



I found this too cute metal charm from Korthobby.no and added it to the scene.  They are a perfect size for the house and what a darling charm for a greetings card.  Don't know if you can see but the little guy is waving to you.  Pity you aren't getting the bling on the trees and the sentiment.  Was a little surprized when I picked this powder up today to see that the box is already half empty.  I only bought it last year and I have some ep's here which have been around a looonnnnggggg time and are still pretty full.  Must grab some more of this one when I am in Englandshire.  

Thanks for dropping by.  The new release at Rubber Dance is 15% off til 27th Oct.  See HERE for details and discount code.  If you are shopping for other stamps yoou can get free shipping with my code  GT-FreeShip.  You can only use one code but do remember if you order over €35 it ships free anyway ;-)  And don't forget to ask Bibi to gift wrap if it's a gift.  Especially if it's a gift to you from you!!  Hugz

Why not a pink Christmas? They were very fashionable here in the U.K. not so long ago. Perfect colours for our Winter and or Spring theme at AUR this time, thank you for thinking of us. XOXO

I love the freshness of the pink, and the pink sky reminds me of sunrise on a frosty morning. That little house is gorgeous, I'm going to have to take a closer look at that set! Thanks for sharing at Always use Rubber
