Well here comes my favourite rabbit! Messy is just so adorable and I think this particular stamp has to be my all time favourite.This card was just so eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasy as I used a backing paper from one of the new paper pads produced by Joanna Sheen. This pad is number 5 in the series and is called White Christmas. Every page in the pad is just so useful - not just for using with Messy Rabbit, but for other characters too. Must try it with Tilda!
I was playing around yesterday with various bits of card stock and decided to try out some card I have called Iced Gold. It's white card, but has a coating on that gives it a sort of gold lustre - very nice and wonderful to use with Promarkers. You can't really tell in the photo, but Messy has a wonderful sheen to him that makes him a bit more Christmassy.
Feeling quite guilty after using the backing paper and having such an easy job I decoupaged Messy to both give dimension and a bit more oomph to the card. I also added a touch of glitter to make the scene frosty.
My card is for the following challenges...Fab's Big Christmas Card Challenge - this one's not from a kit, but I think it still counts and Fab wants to see as many cards as possible.
Simon says - Christmas in August
Papertake Weekly - are celebrating 100 challenges - wow! They are asking members to choose a challenge from last year - I chose 'Let it snow, Let it Snow, Let is Snow'. I'm sure I joined in that one last year but I can't find my entry! Maybe it was a 'gonna do it but didn't one'!
Have a fantastic weekened everyone and see you on Monday for the latest Pink Elephant challenge.

WOW~I would of never guessed you didn't build the background. Fabulous job!
Great card! It could be framed and hung as art! I like the touches of glitter in the snow.

Oh Ann what a fabby card. I love it especially the background. What a difference it makes to the whole thing.
Have just been colouring some of the Penny Black images to stick on the Nesties you sent me. They are all lined up to put on cards - it's like a production line here.
Only one complaint.....I wish you, Irene and Max would stop making such gorgeous cards with all those different stamps etc. I can't keep up...:-( :-( :-(
I'm green with envy - wish I was 30 years younger.......
Love

Wow ... this is beautiful! Love those papers, sometimes find creating a scene a chore, but these sort that issue out! messy rabbit looks so cute and love how you've 3d him. Jillix
Oh I do love this Messy too... I made some card last year using him as it had to be easy as I was recovering from surgery & this little fellow did the trick.
Love those papers too... will have to check my stash as I don't think I have that pad yet... shame on me.
Loving it honey & TFS
Big hugs
