It is a sketch challenge at Sunday Stamps and I had these circles left from a die frame as well as a test piece of mica stained CS. I decided to use the circles and some cuts from my test piece along with a leftover section of an embossed piece. I added the circles and then the panel to a mirror piece to give a small frame. The trees are from a StampinUp set from last year and once die cut I added them to the circles. Then I used a Divinity Design set from a couple of years ago called Beary Christmas and I stamped the 3 smallest images, coloured them with pencils, die cut, added a tiny bit of sparkle and then on to the circles. Using an unbranded banner die I cut the sentiment piece and added it underneath the center bear. The two panels were added to a small slimline piece. I added a few sticker stars as embellishments and called it finished. I have quite a few cards done for Christmas but still have a number to go. At least most of the international ones are done as well as all the ones for the USA. Hopefully you are all catching up on your own Christmas cards and thanks for taking a look here.

This is adorable! I love your mini circle scenes.

I had been playing with the new Mica sprays and had a test piece that looked nice but wasn’t really big enough to use on a normal size card. It worked well for these circles though. Glad you like it and thanks.

This is a great card. That mirror piece adds such a fun touch to the card and all the details are wonderful. I love how the embossed strips add depth and give the idea of movement to the fun scenes.
