This card features the fun Christmas Elf Luka by La-La Land Crafts.  I stamped him on kraft cardstock, coloured with watercolour pencils and white gel pen.  I matted and layered patterned paper by Kaisercraft on a dark chocolate cardstock by PTI.  The holly flourish is a new die by La-La Land Crafts - check it out here.

The tiny buttons are from Button it.  I added crackle accents to the arrow and circle and layered with pop dots/roller adhesive.

Thinking Inking

It is always nearly impossible to capture the shine from the paper when you spray with perfect pearls... but I think I managed to do it this afternoon with the flash on my camera on!  Although it looks splotchier than in real life!.

Supplies: PTI Wreath for all seasons, Papermania white pigment ink, PTI Dark Chocolate, 

Versamark ink, clear embossing powder, I rock crystal heat setting tools and clear gems, 

Fiskars Upper Crest border punch, crochet thread and Distress Inks - tea dye, 

walnut stain and spiced marmalade and Ranger/Tim Holtz blending tool.

This is what the card actually looks like after getting a good dose of tea dye, walnut stain and spiced marmalade!

Am enjoying getting inky!  If you haven't heard about the wonderful 8 weeks of free online classes that 2peas is currently hosting with Guest Designer Jennifer McGuire... you need to check it out ASAP right here.  It's called Holiday Thinking Inking.

Enjoy and hope you have a great week.
