With Love at Xmas

Evening all, 
hope you are all safe considering the recent awful weather in the UK.

I have been busy in my craft room creating some more Christmas Cards for the blokes at Matt's work, this is one of them, I bought this image as I just fell in love with it.

I think the papers for this 8" card are from Papermania but please don't quote me on that.

The base layer is red, with the gold papers and little robin papers.  The gold double wrapped ribbon around the punched layer, the MS holly punch providing the detailing.  The gold double tied bow with a little white glass glittered poinsettia.  A little branch and magnolia tag with the WOJ sentiment on it.  The flowers Wild Orchid Crafts airbrushed in R59. With a computer generated sentiment, cut out with a nestie scroll.  The edges of the sentiment and image plate has been distressed in gold with some gorgeous lace running underneath the grand decorative nestie circle.

Here is a close up of the image called "Holiday Smooch" which has been coloured in copics

Thank you to all my wonderful visitors who take the time to leave such wonderfully inspiring comments, love you all.
