I've always loved A Muse Artstamp images, and ooohhhhh how I would love to join the ranks of the A Muse designers! For now, I'll just have to pretend!
I believe it was again miss Julie Ebersole who ultimately was the inspiration for these quick holiday cards. In fact, probably this exact card!
The Giga and Mega scallop punches make it so easy to create a fun holiday design. Or any seasonal design for that matter. And I love how the ribbon brought around the top of the card makes it look like an ornament.
On these cards I've used all A Muse Artstamp images, Pearlized (shimmery) White paper, Bazzill blue, and even used some Stardust Stickles for added glitz. I used Prismacolor markers to color in the carolers, and Bashful Blue ink for the icey snow on both cards, and snowflakes around the snowman. And, as always, Black Stazon ink for all black stamped images. The ribbon is by May Arts. Have I ever mentioned how much I * l o v e * ribbon?
By the way, I've got more scallop punches and Stardust Stickles on order! Stay tuned for another posting!

I love these cards - they are just beautiful! :)

Hi Anna!
could you please answer a question for me. there is an oval on your cards (both the snowman and the carolers) is that a punch or a stamp?
Your art is always so fabulous - I hope your ebay snowmen go for bundles and bundles of green stuff!

Friend, these look fab fab fab!! You are such a talent and inspiration! Can you share what kind of paper trimmer you use? Your black layer always looks so crisp and perfectly cut.
Hope the ebay sale is going well. Last time I checked, it was going great!

These are gorgeous, Anna! Your coloring is always superb! You are a true artist and I think you would make a terrific A Muse designer. Just look at those snowmen cards you did!!!!
Would you do a car with one of the snowflake punches since I might *need* one after I see what you do with it. I can't judge the sizes of a snowflake by giga or super giga.
