This cute little Christmas critters are from a retired 2011-2012 Stampin Up! set called "Forest Festivities", I love using my old and much loved sets. I stamped them onto Canson water color paper with Stazon Jet Black ink and colored them with this SU markers and the aqua painter: Riding Hood Red, Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive, More Mustard, Chocolate Chip, Garden Green, Regal Rose, Bashful Blue. I added a bit of Dazzling Diamonds for the snow under the bunny's feet and sleigh. I can't remember where I got that background snowflake stamp but I used Coastal Cabana to stamp in onto a panel of Ninah Solar White card stock and to sponge each little square for a little definition. The sentiment is from the Power Poppy Merry Littles , one of many beautiful images on this set, and it's cut with a label die from Spellbinders, (I'm not to sure about this, I had this die set for a long time now).
Here is the banner that inspired this card.
Thank you so much for visiting, I appreciate all you comments, thank you!!
Until next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.

Such a sweet whimsical card, Maria. Those cuties will bring a smile to the recipient's face. Thanks for sharing with the PPA.
I will have to take a look at my SU catty to refresh my memory on this set. I like to revisit older catalogs. I really like the different sizes you used for the cuties. Very nice coloring. Overall cute card.
Thank you Katy, this old stamp sets are really awesome and adorable. I hope The Retro Rubber challenge has a Christmas themed challenge soon, I would love to use the other stamp and sentiments.
Gosh Lisa, I don't have the old catalogs, I always put them in the recycling, I found the year of this stamp set on Splitcoaststampers, going to the Stampin Up! gallery, then, just looked for this set, all the sets are in alphabetical order.
Thank you for stopping by.
Cute, cute, cute. Those animals are great a perfect way to play along with this week's Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge. Thanks or sharing with us.
Thank you Shawn, I love playing with this old SU Christmas set and the Pals Paper Arts fun sketch this week.
Darling critters and lovely watercoloring. I'm especially fond of the bunnies on the sled! Thanks for playing the PPA challenge, Maria!
Thank you Michelle, it was fun to play along with this sketch.
Thank you Mary, I just love this set, all the images are just so festive and cute.
Hola Maria, gracias por tu sentido y hermoso comentario, realmente estamos viviendo momentos tristes en Europa y en el mundo gracias a estos asesinos, porque no hay otra forma de llamarlos. Gracias por compartir tu tristeza por estos aconteciminetos, para mi fue una noche y dias tristes tambien, El 11 de marzo en los trenes de Madrid había gente que conocía y la madre de mi mejor amigo, y estas cosas hacen que se vuelvan a revivir momentos muy dolorosos.
Una tarjeta preciosa, tierna, alegre y festiva, preciosos colores.
Un abrazo desde Palma de Mallorca

Los acontecimientos en Paris fueron de verday horribles, todos hemos sido affectados, sin importar si somos familiares de los inocentes que perdieron la vida a manos de esos desalmados.
Gracias por tu lindo comentario, te agradezco mucho tus dulces palabras.
Un abrazo carinoso desde Crown Point, Indiana. USA.
Thank you for stopping by Bonnie, this card was fun to create, I love playing with my old and beloved stamp sets.
Thank you Patti, this stamp set has been with me for a while but, for the life of me, I can't remember where it came from but the images of those pretty snowflakes are so detailed that I thought it would be a great background for this cuties.
