Christmas card



Hi...another Christmas card for my collection today....Just looking at this one evokes the scent of Christmas - dried oranges, berries and pine needles.
The digi I used on this card is one of my favourite Christmas images to colour with Promarkers. I love to get a little variegation on the leaves, shading on the oranges and some glitter or Glossy Accents on the berries. You can see this image and more Christmas ones HERE on A Passion for Stamps.
I printed the image directly from the computer onto Papermill 300gsm super smooth white card  - perfect for the job!
The gorgeous layered borders were done with the new Tonic Studios Baroque border punch on Papermill Forest Green and Ruby Red card. The patterned paper is from the 12x 12 First Noel pad by Papermania.
The Poinsettias were made with the Tonic Studios Clematis, Lily, Poinsettia Punch and Stamp set and the swirls are made with the Tonic Studios Frond Finesse die set.
