ok, let's get onto my card!
I used these amazing and CUTE and fun products from Create a Smile Stamps


Most Wonderful Time of the Year Card by Samantha Mann for Get Cracking on Christmas, Distress Inks, Slimline Card, Christmas, Create a Smile Stamps, #createasmile #createasmilestamps #distressinks #slimlinecard #slimline #cardmaking #christmas

so cute!

I colored all of the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, and then fussy cut them out! the presents are from the adorable Unpack Me stamp set!

I also used the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set from Newton's Nook Designs, to create the smiline card!
I used Distress Inks in Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron to ink blend and make it lighter in the center.

then I used the Wonky Stars stencil and the same colors, but with more pressure to create the tone-on-tone colors! I also splattered some white acrylic ink on top!
