There's still time to make a few cards, or if you have all your Christmas cards done it's never too soon to start on next year's. I love the instant access of a digital stamp, and that's what I'm sharing today -- the first of Marcella's new digi offerings this month: Season of Serenity.
There's a lot more to this set than what you see here on my card, but it's a start!
After I finished the Copic coloring I did the conifer needles with white acrylic paint as a way of brightening up the area around the bird. Cut out the inside and layered over the sentiment. My only embellishments are the die cut snowflakes.
Christmas card total: 33

Just lovely. Thanks for sharing.
very nice. Have a great day
Wow! What an incredible "collage" creation, Leslie! The set itself is really pretty. I can see why you chose this image from the set. I always marvel at the way you capture the tiniest of details (like the white highlights on the berries and in the cardinal's eye = and the falling snow around the moon. It's a lovely, fabulous creation! hugs, de

Striking blue background.
What a fabulous image! Leslie your colouring is amazing. The blue background makes everything pop! Great idea to paint the conifer needles white. Love the added snowflakes to finish this off! Thanks for sharing this today, I always love when you colour! Have a great day.
Leslie this looks so pretty. That blue edging is amazing and really grabs you. I like that you left the sprigs white, very clever! So pretty!
Fabulous card!
Stunning, like how you did the snow and cut out the center for the sentiment, gorgeous coloring! This would be perfect all by itself but I do like your added snowflakes!
Wow Leslie, this is one beautiful scene and your copic colouring is amazing :)
Beautifully colored Digi stamp, Leslie. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving. The pressure is now on to have enough time to get thru the Christmas season to do lists! TFS another inspiring Christmas beauty. Hugs..Nancy
So pretty! Love the way you colored this image!
Beautiful, bold and brilliant!
Leslie, I love that amazing blue background sky you created for this beautiful image, the pops of red from the Cardinal and the berries, really stand out.
Love the details of the sweet snowflakes.
I thought there was a die to cut the sentiment out, that is some very impressive fussy cutting, my friend.
Another beautiful card for your Christmas stash, how many so far?
