Hi, crafty friends. Christmas is in exactly one month. I’ve got so many Christmas cards made, I’ve lost count. And I still keep making more, there’s just too many good stamps out there that can’t be ignored. Today’s card features some images from the Merriest Little City release from Purple Onion Designs, illustrated by Stacey Yacula.

Meet Lark & Parker. Oh, and Boots, too! A nice hot beverage on a park bench to wind down from the hustle and bustle of the season seems perfect to me. I stamped the park background behind them and colored a very bright winter sunset.

Once my scene was all colored in, I used a stamp from the Merriest City Sentiment set for a sentiment at the bottom, using Hawaiian Shores and Stormy Sea inks from Papertrey Ink to perfectly match the sentiment with the coloring of the scarves and the bag.

Lots and lots and lots of Copics for this one. The first eight in this graphic are for the sky alone.
