And a partridge in a pear tree....
Now that we have had a break in the heat, I am starting to work on Christmas cards. On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
I finally inked up this Unity Itty Bitty and stamped it on vellum, colored it with Derwent watercolor pencils, layered on Seven Gypsies paper, and mounted on a dark green card base. I am sharing this with the Shopping Our Stash/Jingle Belles joint challenge, CASual Fridays Musical challenge, Merry Monday holly challenge, and Cards in Envy Inspired by a Song. Whew! It's unusual for me to have one card entered multiple challenges!!! Be sure to stop by Words 2 Scrap By for our Talk Like a Pirate challenge!!!!

It is a beautiful Christmas card, Bobbi. The sheet music is perfect for this singing partridge. I've been working on them also. Starting to panic as time goes by so darn fast. Have a fun weekend.
