gifts galore!!

 
stamps: wishing you, warmth& wonder and distressed dots all from stampin up!
inks: aquamarine, vermillion &olive archival ink pads
cardstock: craftwork cards digi cardstock & 4x4 card blank
extras: sizzix big shot & framelits circle dies
 
I made this little Christmas card as a simple and fresh take on the sketch. I thought that the dots stamped background worked well with the circle topper and the dotty present in the stamp. the fab Friday colour scheme really adds to the sense of fun for this card, with the turquoise to brighten up the traditional red and green.

i added a sentiment stamped inside on the matching background with a little present to finish this card off. I kept things quite clean and simple for this one but I think the fun little touches just make it !!

if you wanted to make things really simple for a large batch of cards, use a red card then just matt the dotty layer on to save time !!
