Morning.
Meet today's card.
I really like 'scene' Christmas cards that remind us all of being home for the holiday. I also love this stamp that I have owned for many years by Serendipity and I like to try and use it on a card every year.
I began by stamping the image with Memento black ink. I coloured the image using Copic markers then cut it down so it would fit inside the scored border area. I added some red paper to the back of the image and the card front border to help make it all pop.
The sentiment is a old one from Stampin Up.
Adding my card to these challenges:
Alphabet Challenge- "U" USE SOMETHING RED
CRAFT Challenge- CHRISTMAS
Thanks so much for taking a look.
Supplies: stamps- Serendipity, SU/ ink- Memento/ Copic markers/ ScorPal/ pop dots

This reminds me of the scenery when I was growing up too! Gorgeous coloring and the white frame with a narrow border of red fits it perfectly!
The minute I saw this I thought of the Ontario countryside in winter! Lovely memories from my childhood. And a perfect classic Christmas card!
A lovely old-fashion Christmas card. I understand why you would keep this classic stamp.

Casting another vote for childhood memories, Cape Cod home and all! Great job coloring and framing the card, as usual. If you ever want to sell the stamp, call me first.
This made me think of good old fashioned winters in Wisconsin.
