Good morning everyone,
Today I'm sharing an inspirational Polkadoodles Christmas card coloured with distress reinkers.
This cute stamp is called 'Snow Much Fun'.
I cut out the largest of the Posydoodles Circle dies and stamped her with a stazon timber brown ink pad onto Artistico extra white water colour paper.

I love red and grey together especially when making Christmas cards, but the red can be a tricky as it can bleed. My tip is to let it dry thoroughly before applying the next colour and lean on a tissue so as not to smudge the red.
I used my pebeo drawing gum to create the dots, this acts as a mask and rubs off once you have finished colouring.
The snowflakes peeping out at the top were cut with the fabulous fancy snowflake die and I've sprinkled on some twinklets to give them a lovely frosty look.
DI list:
Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick
Hair: Walnut Stain, Antique Linen
Coat, Boots and Hat: Hickory Smoke, Black Soot
Red: Barn Door, Aged Mahogany
The papers are from Winnie White Christmas digi Paper 1 collection which I have edged with white gesso. These papers are really versatile and can be used all year round.
Tucked underneath the flowers are a couple of spruce leaves (sorry it's a bit difficult to make them out white on white), but they are absolutely gorgeous and cut perfectly. I've added some twinklets to them which gives a lovely frosty look.
The sentiment is from the Merry and Bright set of sentiments. I stamped the 'Noel' sentiment onto one of the Posydoodle tag dies with a clear stamp pad and sprinkled over some silver embossing powder.
I hope you like it, thank you so much for popping in.
Happy crafting.
