Make- believe - Penny Black

Good Morning everyone, 
It's Christmas Eve!! Having been absolutely full of cold/tummy bug for the last week, I am finally feeling a bit better! I didn't have the energy to do too much yesterday but did manage to sit down and do a bit of crafting! 
I've used an old Penny Black wooden stamp for this card - Make Believe.

I've coloured him with promarkers and copics, and added a red gem for the reindeers nose. The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley - printed out on the large side! The background paper is from a Hunkydory duo design pad - nordic animals and winter wood. I've used a Marianne designs treed die LR0379. I fussy cut the hedgehog and added to the background with 3D foam pads.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-

Passion for Markers - Add a sentiment

Stamping Sensations - Fantasy / Anything Goes

I still have a couple of gifts to wrap, so I'd better get cracking. I hope you are all enjoying the festive season so far. 
 I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas
