Drummer Boy

This is the Christmas card I made for my husband.  I have had this drummer boy stamp and was waiting for the right moment to use it.  The sentiment on the inside is from Quietfire Design.  I just love these calligraphy stamps. 

The drummer boy was stamped in StazOn Black then colored with Prismacolor pencils and blended with Gamsol.  I sponged the outer edges with Brilliance Pearlescent Beige & ColorBox Chalk Creamy Brown.

It's a timeless treasure!! I never know what my husband will like. He went up to go digging through my "special" Christmas cards to pick one out for his mom and I was surprised by his choices!! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!!
