Monochrome Humphrey

Hi everyone

I know its the snowman that is taking up everyone's attention at the minute but thought i would post another Humphrey Christmas card from the latest Christmas stamp and paper cd.  I have used my ultimate pro to make an A5 gatefold card and then again decided to use all greys in the spectrum noir pens. 
 As you can see I've added a few embellishments and i think i have gone a bit overboard.  The black ribbon is also crafters companion and i cannot remember where the other embellishments are from, i think its a mixture of wild orchid crafts, dies to die for and meiflower.
 I've added a bit of glitter to highlight the image in places but didn't realise it had a blue tinge to it, as i bought it as white so i was a bit disappointed as i didn't really notice til it was dried.  Below i have added an outside view and have left one ribbon untied so you can see the closing embellishment.

I have also embossed the Humphrey sentiment in in silver and used my heat gun.  I love heat embossing and am still amazed how it turns out when its done. 

I am entering this card into Jingle all the way to Christmas challenge on the Ribbon girl blog.

Hope you like it.

  2. It's lovely Louise - as always. And I don't like too many embellishments on a card but I think yours is just fine as it is!

  3. It's lovely and you can't have too many embellies - the crystal swirls look like Zva by the way. Thanks so much for joining in with the Ribbon Girl Jingle all the Way challenge. Mary G x
