CSAYL #53 - Non stamping card

This weeks challenge was to create a card without stamps. I found this free clip art image online and though it would make a great Christmas card. I colored it with my Copic markers and then layered it under a velum quote to soften it. The papers are from My Mind's Eye.

You have to go check out the other cards on the Christmas Stamping All Year Long challenge blog...you will LOVE them!! Please oh please join in the fun with us! I have a nice size stash of completed cards and gifts ready for the holidays, I can feel the stress leaving the room at holiday time! :-)

Happy Stamping!
