Hi everyone,
I'm back to play along in a few challenges...I'm determined to create a lot of cards for the Caring Hearts Card Drive, so the first is for the Merry Monday challenge...
We are being asked to use a bird on our Christmas card, and this little guy from PTI Petite Pots is one of my faves. I watercolord the wreath with Peerless, and spritzed with some Perfect Pearls for shimmer. I also added some Glossy Accents to the berries for shine.
********************
My 2nd card is for the current MFT Sketch Challenge.
I bought this month's kit, and it made me almost eligible for the free set of dies (those cute little trees). I colored the goggles with Copics and added Glossy Accents for fun. I also used the SSS Falling Snow stencil with embossing paste and added a little bit of sparkle to the snowflakes! Oh, and did I mention that I flipped the sketch?
So, that's it for me...
Thanks so much for stopping by ~
These are fabulous, Barb! The wreath card looks so fresh and has a very cool look. And that bear is just too cute!
