Mulberry Wood Pandas

Here's a card I've made for one of my crafty pals using a cute Crafter's Companion Mulberry Wood stamp I recently won, I think the image is so adorable.
I made an easel from two kraft blanks and, yep, it's those Lili of the Valley Frosty Christmas papers again!  Can you tell how much I love them?!  The image was coloured with Promarkers and highlighted with Glamour Dust for a touch of festive sparkle, I also added seed beads for eyes.  The sentiment stamp on the stopper element is from a Buzz Craft set which I hadn't used in ages, I really must play with the Fairy Doodles set it's from as the images are so sweet.  So many stamps so little time!  The snowflake mat was created with a mega handy Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page set and I die cut a snowflake embellishment from holographic card using an Xcut die, it's much blingier in real life, holographic and mirri cardstocks are so tricky to photograph.  I finished my card with ribbon, a bow and some iridescent gems.
