Hampton Art DCWV Blog Hop

For my card, I used papers from DCWV's Heirloom Christmas Stack. The stamps are from Hampton Art's Graphic 45 Nutcracker series. I used Clearsnap ink (Colorbox Metallic Q) I also used some rub-ons by Royal Brush and a flower by Prima Marketing. Here are the products I used plus what you can win. :)

I too like how you did not color in the ballerina. I'm terrible at coloring so it is always nice to see something like this that is not colored. THanks for sharing with us.
