Used an older CTMH stamp set (set has animals: bear, deer, eagle, fox, moose) that has swirls pattern to make this Christmas/Winter card. Had a card I sent to a friend not reach its destination so sending another. Matter of fact I have 2 cards that did not reach their destination so will be making another. Stamped the sentiment in black first and then stamped over it with gold ink (not easily seen in photo but pretty in person}. The MISTI tool makes it easy to stamp in same position. The gold ink & gold foil add just the right touch of sparkle. Used a Simon die to give dimension with pattern paper hill. Used a paintbrush & stickles to add shine to swirls on Bear.
