Hi everyone!
Whoop, whoop...it's almost Jurassic Park Day! Yay. Jamie's so excited about Santa bringing him the Jurassic Park trilogy that he's forgotten what the other pressies he's asked for are. I'm really looking forward to it...Baileys, scrummy home made mince pies and chocolate...perfect! Hope you're all ready and have done all your shopping.
Anyway...it's the start of a new challenge over at Scribble and Scrap where the theme is, as always, Anything Goes! Yay! So no excuses...you must have plenty of Christmas cards to shove on there.
The card I've made features a brand new digi which can be found here. It's one of The Puglies and it's Ollie and Noel building a snowman. This was going to be a card for next Christmas but Jamie's decided he wants this one so I'll have to start again with my cards for 2014.
Looks like whatever naughty little Puglie threw that snowball is going to score a direct hit on poor old Ollie!
I've coloured this image using the following Copics and Promarkers:
Copics: E00, E11 and E21
Promarkers: Baby Pink, Walnut, Cocoa, Cinnamon, Cool Aqua, Pastel Blue, Pine, Forest Green, Bright Green, Black, Cool Grey 1, 3 and 5, Spice, Ginger, Apricot, Cardinal Red, Berry Red and Red, Ivory...and the blender.
The image was very quick and easy to colour as well, which makes it a pleasure to use.
I've created the papers myself and colour picked Forest Green and Berry Red and used them with white.
Because the artwork for this one is quite large, I've kept the layout and embellishments very simple. The pearls and brads are from my stash and I cut the snowflakes from white glitter card using Spellbinders dies. The sentiment was created using my lappy. The inside is decorated to match.
I will be entering this card into the following challenges:
