A ROUND CHRISTMAS CARD

I sell Penny Black Stamps and I saw a card sample in their catalog that looked a lot like this card.  I stamped the image once on white card stock and then angled the stamp around the first one three more times so that I could cut the piece with the Spellbinders Classic Circle.  Copic markers were used to color the design.  I then swirled Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink over the entire piece and colored the design with Copic markers.  The space between the stamped images seemed like it needed something so I took my go Spica Gold pen and just made random marks.

The next step was to cut a slightly larger red circle with SU card stock and then a SU Garden Green circle with the Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circle.  I added small gold dots to each of the scallops with the gold pen.

Thank you for stopping by!  Your comments are always welcome...........I love hearing from you.
