Here's my "Scene It" project:
 
I wanted to create the warm and cozy feeling of Christmas Eve where the fire is crackling, Christmas music playing in the background, cookies baking in the oven and lights lit up all around. AAhhh I can picture Christmas already! Okay so my card is standard A2 size. My card base is Bazzill and my layer and patterned paper are from Recollections. I used my Martha Stewart Snowflakes punch to make a small border along the top. I used various stamps for this card. The fireplace stamp is from Hero Arts and the string of lights is from Bo Bunny's new Christmas line. The Christmas tree is from Hot off the Press and presents are from a stamp I got in the dollar bin at Michael's.
 
I colored the fireplace stamp using my copics E29, E33, E35, 100, R24, R29, R59, Y19, YR02, YR68, G21 and G24. The Christmas tree was colored using copics G21, G24, G28 and G85. I colored in the presents using my gel pens and the star and string of lights were stamped in Momento Tuxedo black ink and colored in using stickles. I used stickles to add lights to the Christmas tree too.
 
Here is a peek at the inside of my finished card: 
 
 
I LOVE this sentiment "May the beauty of this season bring you joy!"
The sentiment is from the Christmas Joy stamp set from Mary's Cardz TV Stamps. I used the negative snowflakes from the border I punched on the front of the card for the inside to give it that "Christmas" feel.

  5. What a fabulous scene you've created here, Jo. I can almost feel the warmth from that fireplace. This card made me think of Christmas' past in our family room with our five kids sitting around the tree with the fire blazing on Christmas Eve reading The Night Before Christmas (our tradition). Thanks for helping me remember those wonderful times.

  16. Hi Joann! Your scene card is darling! I love all the details, especially how you punched the snowflake border to embellish the pretty red polka dotted paper. It's the perfect Christmas scene with the stamped images. Love that technique of stamping and fussy cutting. Your coloring is lovely too. Would love to get some Copics. It looks fantastic! ~Vanessa
