Merry Christmas from London


I spotted a fun Christmas challenge on the Winter Wonderland blog called "Across the Miles" and thought that a card with something to do with London on it would fit the bill (seeing as that is where I live, and I've managed to collect a fair few London/Union Jack/Jubilee crafty bits over the last year).

I love this stamp by Penny Black, and decided I would try to turn it into a snowy, wintry scene by combining it with some blue papers from a yummy Polkadoodles CD, and just a touch of colour from some Copics - and this is what I came up with!  I'm sure that I could have given it a more wintry feel with more colour and inks, but I quite like the clean fresh look of all the white with just a hint of colour.  What do you think?

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Winter Wonderland - Across The Miles
CD Sunday - Christmas
Make It Monday - Linky Party #110
Stamp and Create - Winter Wonderland
