Hello my lovely friends! I hope all is well and that every one is able to get all their shopping done. Today, for me was a totally Bonnie day, filled with only creativity and relaxation. Like I have time to do that. But sometimes it's for the best in order to stay sane.
So I was finally able to use this adorable Magnolia stamp which has been waiting very patiently to get inked up. She was a lot of fun to color in, look at all those glorious packages? I used Copic markers and highlighted with a little Liquid Pearls. The paper is by Magnolia which is so beautifully bright and vibrant, I just love it. I used craft paper for the border, tag and star, inking the edges with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I used Adirondack snow cap dabber and Snow writer for texture. The border die is by Magnolia and the flourishes, flowers, leaves and doily are by Marianne Designs. I attached a metal star and some sweet little crystals to my hand dyed seam binding ribbon. The Yuletide charm is by Tim Holtz, they are so cute. For the flourishes and the red berries I added Glossy accents and dipped into Diamond Dust and immediately loved how the berries turned out.
As always I really love hearing from you and I thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to visit me.
Hugs Bonnie

С Наступающим Новым годом!
Пусть Новый год вам принесет
Со снегом - смех,
С морозом - бодрость,
В делах успех,
А в духе - твердость.
Пусть все заветное свершится
И, пересилив даль дорог,
Надежда в дверь к вам постучится
И тихо ступит на порог.
А вслед за ней войдет удача
С бокалом праздничным в руке,
Вбегут, ребячась и играя,
Сюрприз и шутка налегке.
Мы от души вам всем желаем
Любви и радостных хлопот.
Пусть вас ничем не огорчает
2012-й год!
Oooh I missed out on this...
I love your christmas card, the colors are great and all your details are just FAB!!!
More hugs :)
