Gentle Christmas Hugs

Today's card features one of the stamps from the 'Merry Delivery' set by Penny Black. I stamped the image, and one of the matching sentiments, onto a piece of watercolour paper, then coloured the image using watercolour pencils. I distressed the edges a little, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen, before matting it onto a piece of teal coloured card and adding it to a kraft card blank.
