Anyway I liked the finished result so much, it ended up being my card to all my family and friends! There's a bit of colouring to do, but the images do all the hard work, so there's no need to be faffing about cutting things out!
My stamps are from Eat Cake Graphics:
Family of Carolers
Lamp post
'Deck the Halls' sentiment from Happy Little Stampers.
I've coloured my little family with watercolour pencils and added glitter to their baubles, trim of Dad's Santa hat, and Mum's ear muffs. Clear gloss added to the lantern glass and I covered the boy's hat, Dad's scarf and hat, and the little girl's skirt in my clear sparkle pen. I masked my family and the lantern off, and splattered the background with pink watercolour to match my base. Oh and I added some Frosted Lace stickles to the ground for my fallen snow, so there's LOTS of sparkle on this card! Little gold stars from my stash.
This card is also posted over at A Sprinkling of Samples and Techniques blog, where you'll find lots more loveliness from Eat Cake Graphics
And here's another version of the same card, but this time I used the Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow stencil, but to be honest it was a bit of a faff and I couldn't be bothered with it for mass production.
