Starting My Christmas Cards

Well Christmas is quickly approaching and I do up approx. 50 Christmas cards each year.  It is not a quick process as I have a theme I follow for the people I give them to.  For example my one sister loves cardinals, so each year I get a new Cardinal stamp for her card.  This card is for friends of ours who children love animals.  I fully intended on submitting for last Fridays challenge on Stamping Bella, but we were away camping for the week and did not have access to email the card in.  I love to sit and color in the evenings and while away, this one was colored up back in July, so I do not have the colors of the copic markers and pencils I used.  I added Fun Flock Snow White to the hats.  On their noses I used a black gel pen.  The plaid paper is some I had in my stash and the red is Stampin Up. I used Spellbinders to cut the image and for the tag.
