Welcome sweeet peeps and Happy Saint Nicholas to everybody who celebrates this wonderful feast!
I have a short post today, I must get ready for guests coming by this evening! I have a Christmas card to show you today, naturally. Our challenge theme over at Mo's Digital Pencil Too is
Anything Goes!
so no challenge at all..., just show us your card/project, with a Mo image on of course:)
I've been so willing to color up this gorgeous Mo image- With the Baby- to the point I even made several cards with it, which is quite unusual for me:).I have lots of requests and no time to make these Christmas cards. Everybody wants them the last minute. People don't actually know how much time goes into each one of them. They just look at the card and say "WoW! This is gorgeous! Could you make me about 10 of these?:)))" As if it's a pice of cake:))
This is an easy card to make but nevertheless it took me about more than 1 hour and a half. So, think about making 10 of these for instance... and for tomorrow....lol.
I couldn't take a good photo as the papers are a bit glossy and the light reflects either on them either on the acetate on the window. The sentiment is in Italian as this is for one of my husband's customers in Italy.
I also added a small glittery star on the window. I was thinking about more things to draw, that would be an interesting idea. I think acetate is my favorite material this Christmas:). It's so versatile and looks awesome on cards.
Card recipe:
Image- Mo Manning- With the Baby
DP: Vintage Christmas- digital- from Jessica Sprague- awesome Christmas collection:)
Coloring medium: copics/promarkers
Die cuts: Grand Arched Window- Poppystamps- from Dies to die for, nestabilities- fancy tags and Persian Accents, Memory Box- Frostyville Border and Holly Flourish
Embellishments: flowers from IAM Roses, ribbon-stash
Sentiment : computer generated
I would also want to enter my card in the following challenges:

This is a quite simple card to make at this time of the year; I love windows and doors on cards; I think they are a must in our ever growing...pffui...die cutting collection:)
Thank you all for coming by! It's a pleasure to hear from you all!

I almost choked when I read that you made this work of art in just 1.5 hours! I need to learn to work faster! hehe! And I definitely have to get this window die cut!! Have a great week, sugar!! Hugs.

This is so beautiful Iulia. The window makes such a fantastic background for the image. Love the bit of frost and all the lovely colors. Hugs!
Incredible, Iulia! Your stunning work and the fact that you "only" needed 1,5 h for this masterpiece. Compared with you i am soooo slow. But I can truly understand that your cards are much sought-after!
Big hugs,
