Welcome, and Merry Christmas Eve!
I hope you have an amazing Christmas -- I'm sending my sincerest Merry Wishes to all of you.
May your holidays be filled with love, laughter and those close to your heart.
My first card is going to Hubbs!
A new stamp, that I just love! This card will be visiting NBUS #81. Stamped, colored and cut, then popped up with its cute sentiment.
This next card was an "ask". I literally had a request to make all of their Christmas cards from a photograph. While I clearly don't have the time, it was also hard for me to translate into a card as I know them. I definitely had a struggle, but we sent it to the requestor and they loved it. I believe this was close to my 6th attempt! I guess I'm better at "inspiration" than translation from realistic. I'll attach the "photo" below.
A masked skyline, a bunch of ink-blending and stamping of "branches" and "grass", then splattering before adding the stamped and die-cut deer.

While I did my best converting a photo into a card, I have so manyreservations, at least in this instance. Are my "deer" supplies limited? Yes. Is it horrible? No. Would I ever sell a card (not that I do anyway) like this? No! I'll chalk it up to Best Effort.
Supplies:
Card 1 - Unity Snugglebuck (NBUS); MFT - Elegant Rectangle Stax dies
Card 2 - PTI Deer To Me stamps/dies
That's it for me, and I truly hope you have
The Most Wonderful Christmas!
Hugs,
TK
