Postbox X-Mas

 



So As You Like It's current challenge is Favourites, Gingham or Florals (and why) which was incredibly easy for me to answer, Gingham. I am not a girly girl, so I've never been into florals over much. Gingham, checkered and plaids however, now that's my jam. I own so many gingham and plaid shirts, I'm not even kidding. My basic every day uniform is some variation of jeans, tee and either a shirt or hoodie, depending on how cold it is and all my shirts are gingham or plaid. 

I used a Pollycraft digi, coloured with my promarkers. Paper from dovecrafts 'krafty christmas' pack and a bit of ribbon from my stash. A few gems and the holly embellishment to finish.

  2. This is such a beautiful Christmas card. I can imagine a child sending a letter to Santa Claus. Your coloring is really perfect and the implementation of the sketch is so successful. I also love the papers.
    Thank you for presenting this cute card at the recent Everybody Art Challenge.

Have A Great Day

How cute is this wee pupper from digi doodle shop. I've had him cut out waiting for me to decide what to do with him for aaaaages! I finally coloured him with my promarkers and decided on this side stepper card. The various elements were cut on my cameo. The paper is from the Nit Wit Paws-ativity collection. I stamped and cut the sentiment by hand and added it to the tree with a bit of twine, to make it look kinda like a swing (and it does swing, side to side at least, lol).

Meowy Christmas Kitty

  I picked this from All Dressed Up after winning two of their beautiful images from an Outlawz challenge. Friends of mine just got a new kitten and this will be perfect for them for xmas. I coloured the image with my promarkers and used papers from hobbycrafts traditional chrismtas pack. The stocking embellishment came from the matching embellishment set. The sentiment was stamped from a set I was given a while ago.

Candy Cane Holidays

  This cute image from Pollycraft was coloured with my promarkers, and I added some glitter glue on the wings and around the 'fluffy' bit of the jacket. The sentiment was just hand printed. The papers were from the make&create 'Joy to the World' pack. I used green for the layering, on a kraft card base and a few gems to finish it up.
