Christmas Spirit...

 This is one of those cards I made using only left overs off my desk.  Sometimes, after a particular frenzy of card making, I have a pile of perfectly good seconds and it always feels good to use them instead of tossing!  Wonder Christmas Pixie from A Day For Daisies was a printout from the last card - I colored her with Copics and I fussy cut it with a 1/16th inch border.  It was then glued on to a scrap of black and fussy cut again to strengthen the fragile parts of the image and to provide some contrast against the background.  The scrap of paper used on the background is the reverse side of a previously used one.  The sentiment was a "practice stamp" to check the inking on a scrap - I just cut it down and matted it with another scrap of black.  The ribbon & bow were made trying to learn how to use a bow maker many weeks ago - this is getting embarrassing for you to know how deep my desk is piled!!  The only thing 'new' are the 3 red gems - they were not on the desk, but properly tucked away where they belong.
