Simple Christmas card

 Hi Everyone, another Christmas card, I was influenced by this card by Loll. I didn't have the products to make the gorgeous original, however I loved it enough to make one like? it. 

I had recently had a beautiful watercolour digital set and it suited this card.  I made the card arranging one of the images and then added a sentiment with fonts I had, in a similar fashion (different fonts) to the sentiment on Loll's card. I added some glitter and the card was done. 
image - Poinsettia and Berries, Creative Fabrika
fonts - Lavenderia, Ariel
glitter - Nuvo Pure Sheen


I then decided to do another, I print and cut the image on the Cameo, to layer onto a card with the printed sentiment, however I have to play and I altered the fonts and design of the sentiment. When adding the glue to the sentiment, I realised I had been inking on some card I was going to layer it on and it had transferred to the sentiment, I thought all was lost and was going to print again when I decided to just go with it. So here is the second card.
same image as above
fonts - Ariel, Lavanderia, Arabella, Autumn Embrace

You are so talented with digital images, Faith! Both cards are just lovely! The accidental inking gives the second card a bit of a rustic look!
