Dirty Dozen October Christmas card

 Happy Fall everyone, we are heading into the home stretch for "making" for the holidays now is the way my brain works once Autumn arrives so, I really loved the colors of this month's prompt for doing some Christmas ahead of time project with the dirty girls seen here in the special forums set aside for Fan Club members. I knew I would have something that would work. So, I ended up choosing this Stamplorations set called fa-la-la-la-latte and stamping the image and sentiment on the artist loft watercolor paper with some Versafine clair Acorn ink.

I used some Daniel Smith watercolors to paint it and then added white gouache to the "foam" on the coffee but, I didn't really see it so well when it was dry so when the card was all the way done I did add some stickles glitter glue to the foam and the centers of the all spice. 

The printed papers here are both from the Simple Stories simple vintage holly jolly pad and that lace is vintage. The water colored panel was diecut with an Mama Elephant deckled frame die and is up on foam pop dots over the papers. That's really all I did here and I do like the not so traditional colors. That's about it from me. I hope you're doing well & thanks for stopping by.
