All the Trimmings

Hi everyone.  I'm back with another Christmas card.  I'll be posting lots of Christmas cards over the next couple of months and I am woefully behind with my stash of Christmas cards.

This time I used another beautiful image from Penny Black (All the Trimmings).  Stamped in black, heat embossed in clear and watercoloured with distress inks.  I taped it to my card front and popped up a card front over top with a rectangle aperture frame and simple stamped sentiment (Christmas Sentiments - Penny Black).

Beautiful Christmas card Loll and your coloring is so pretty. I like how you used the rectangle frame to showcase it.
