Pink Christmas


Good Morning,

Well I am really getting into making Christmas cards but I thought I would break from the norm & go Pink. I have used the cute Tilda in Cozy Coat & have coloured up using Copic Markers, I have also added some glamour dust to her coat & snowflakes.


I have used a Tim Holtz tool to distress the edges of the paper & added pink ink to the edges.


The flowers are a mixture of Wild Orchid Crafts & Live & Love crafts, all the links will be at the bottom of the post


The inside has been decorated to complement the front.

Hope you have a fab day
