Today I drew no Max or Maxine...

I drew their kids and a friend, the Santa "Lazy" Cat...

I made this card with a sketch of EdithDesigns© (that is me!). It seemed nice to me to add to my little family' dog the four puppies and the cat, who brings them gifts. I printed the Image several times for a 3D effect. The Christmas tree has snow and a rhinestone star on the top. I also added a dry embossed background to which a applied the technique of sand paper to highlight the image.

In the inside I sew a pocket, dry embossed, and added a tag, which can be replace with a gift card.

Colors are not typical Christmas colors, but I think they combine very well.

In this card I used:

Image and sentiment from EdithDesigns©, bronze metallic cardstock, Bazzill cardstock, Bohemia Collection paper from My Mind's Eye, Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circle, Christmas Cuttlebug embossing folder, Caran D'Ache watercolors, acrylic metallic paints, organza ribbon, translucid dew drops, silk thread in bronze and golden colors and my sewing machine.

Here is Santa Max, again...!

I cannot leave him! LOL!!!

I made this card with a hand sketch called "Santa Max" of EdithDesigns© (that is me!). There is cardstock with glitter, ribbons and opaque dew drops. I love the combination of colors, burgundy, dark turquoise and the beautiful designer paper.

I like to decorate both sides of the inside of my cards, to give them a fine finish, strong and heavy. On the right side there is a blank space to write your own good wishes and on the left side I sew a pocket, decorated with the delicate touch of the beautiful EK Success paper punch (I love it!). A tag is included to be used for a sentiment, but the pocket also handle a gift card. I am sure it will make the recipient very happy!

There are several layers of cardstock, both on the outside and the inside, which I sew with silk burgundy thread on my sewing machine.

Card supplies:
Image and sentiment from EdithDesigns©, Bazzill cardstock, miscellaneous printer paper, Caran D'Ache watercolors, acrylic metallic paints, Tulip dimensional puffy paint, EK Success Paper Shapers Scallop Dotted, burgundy and golden ribbons, dew drops, burgundy silk thread, scissors, sewing machine.
