Engagement card

I had to make an engagement card but I don't have any sentiments for that occassion so I just went with a lovely dovely theme (so not me lol) I have used up some retired designer paper and punched two love birds with the XL bird punch. The sentiment is from Vintage Vogue.

Since I had a scrap of Cherry Cobbler cardstock left over I made a simple tag to tie to a candy cane. The cute koala is from the Happy Christmas Mate set..

Happy Christmas Mate!

Since snowmen aren't likely on the Gold Coast this Christmas, I thought I should do and Aussie Christmas card. I don't own this set (Happy Christmas Mate) but a friend kindly loaned it to me so I could have a play..it's now officially on my wish list! I watercoloured the image with Soft Suede, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler and added a bit of Dazzling Diamonds to some of the pressies..I have also coloured surfing Santa but have't made a card for him as yet..stay tuned!
