Christmas Countdown

When I received Dotty Numbers from Downland Crafts this month, several ideas popped into my head.  The first idea was to pair the numbers with this adorable Elf Ollie for a Christmas countdown.

I colored the elf with Spectrum Noir's TriBlend alcohol markers and fussy cut her out.  The numbers were stamped in grey, while embossing "25" in gold glitter embossing powder.  I added various holiday ephemera from my stash to complete the card, making sure there was plenty of sparkle.  I think the stark white card base plays nicely as a backdrop for the pops of green, red, and gold.
