It's begining to look like Christmas

Christmas Time is here, Christmas has always been my favorite Holiday. Christmas to me is about family, giving to others and traditions that only happen during Christmas.

Along with Christmas comes the cold weather and snow. Nothing warms me more during winter than some hot coco. So for this card I have created a card using the digial stamp from Faery Ink named Coco Marshmallow Fae and Christmas. 

This card is also being entered into a color challenge that the Faery Ink Facebook group is having. The colors we had to use is red, green and gold.

I forgot to save a close up of my coloring of the girl and skirt so I had to share a screenshot from Instagram. I really love how the skirt turned out. I also added some glitter to it, you will see that in a following pictures.

Here is the finished card. The image is colored in with colored pencils. All of the papers are from Reflections found at Micheal's. The wood Merry Christmas is a plain wooden tag from the Dollar Spot at Target. I covered it with gold glitter glue from Micheal's. The poinsettia is also from Micheal's. The red and dark green dollies are from Reflections. 


Added some of the glitter glue to her skirt to get a bit of shimmer to the gold section. And also did the snow flakes in the glitter. I know it is a little thing but I like how the shading on the marshmallows turned out.


Just another view to show how I have her popped off the page And how the Merry Christmas is raised from the card also. 

 

Thanks for stopping by and say hello if you would like.
I plan on entering her in to the following challenges:
Faery Ink's Facebook December Challenge - Red, Green and Gold
Crafty Gals Corner #49 Challenge - Anything Goes
I have not joined to many challenges just yet but I am learning to do more blogging to find ones to join.
