12 Days of Christmas

Hi Everyone,

sorry to disappoint you, but there is only 3 days of Christmas on this card - no way to fit all twelve....
I finally inked up this cute Penny Black set that I had for ages in my stash.....



I die cut 3 circles and marked the opening on the base card. Stamped the critters in there. Colored them with markers and Inktense pencils.  Did some ombre sponging for the top panel and added water splatters.

Das ist ja auch eine ordentliche Herausforderung, 12 Weihnachtstage auf eine Karte zu bekommen. Deine Minimalversion ist aber Klasse geworden!!!
Super cute images and great coloring. Now that Christmas carol is on my mind.

Too cute and clever. Think 3 days of Christmas are enough?
