Koala Christmas

My first Christmas card for the year, an Aussie Christmas with koala and baby sitting in a tree.  I don't have much nice green cardstock, so coloured up some white snippets with a Distress Marker. Also running low on red cardstock, so coloured the Santa hat with a red alcohol marker.

Cardstock - white card blank, white snippets, snippets of textured white, black, greys and kraft-like, tiny snippets of red and green

Paper - very old unknown freebie from magazine

Dies - Marianne Design koalas, Sizzix Tim Holtz Garden Greens, Cottage Cutz Jolly Santa (for hat and holly), unknown birch tree (for branch)

Embossing Folder - Kaisercraft Woodgrain

Tools - Sizzix Big Shot

Other - Sentiment sticker, Ranger Tim Holtz Bundled Sage Distress Marker, Bic Mark-it Rambunctious Red
