HLS Christmas May

Welcome to the third HLS challenge for May and this time it's Christmas. It's the perfect opportunity to get ahead with those Christmas cards and avoid the rush later in the year.

 

 I have gone with the optional theme as I usually do - Mistletoe. The stamp is a magazine freebie from last Christmas which was still in it's packaging.

I stamped and heat embossed in gold three times on black cardstock. The leaves and berries are painted with my neglected H2Os. The sentiment in gold card was cut with a Paper Rose die - another NBUS item. Then I liberally added some gold splatters and mounted it onto a green card base.

I do hope you'll join in with us, but if you need more inspiration, check out the challenge blog. I’m also sharing this with Cas Christmas Card Challenge.
