Caroling in May

I do realize that Mother's Day will soon be upon us but the weather is cool so I'm continuing to make Christmas cards.  This one is for Jingle Belles and Repeat Impressions challenges. 

The sketch from Repeat Impressions is as follows



For Jingle Belles, we were encouraged to add embossing..."dry embossing, heat embossing, or even textured or embossed papers ... whatever you can do to add a little texture to your holiday project."

Here's what I created
Card recipe:
The black stamped images - Versafine with clear embossing powder then heated
Cuddlebug Snowflake embossing folder for the large white frame, added Glimmer mist
Cuddlebug Polka Dot folder for the blue caroler's coat
Cricut - Winter Frolic for carolers, Ornamental Iron 2 for red and white frames
Embellishments Skittles and pearls, chalk for cheeks, Peachy Keen for faces
Thanks for stopping by!  I love to hear your comments.



Challenges:
Jingle Belles JB10-12 - Embossing around the Tree
Repeat Impressions M212
