Hi everyone and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I loved getting an extra hour of sleep yesterday, but I always hate it when it gets dark so early in the evenings now. It feels like the days go by so much faster. Anyway, I was lucky enough to get some time in the craft room over the weekend and I wanted to share my first Christmas card with you today (one down, so many to go!!! :) ).
I absolutely love this image illustrated by ching chou kuik for Sweet Pea Stamps. This particular image is called Holly Fairy and I think she is absolutely gorgeous! I truly had so much fun coloring this image. I colored the image with copics (I just love pink mixed in with traditional Christmas colors so I had to color her dress and wings pink :) ). I inked around the image very lightly with SU's Pretty in Pink ink and then added Stardust Stickles to her wings. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock. My design paper is from Recollections (I got it at Michael's). For some finishing touches, I added pearls, Primas, and roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. The sentiment is from Studio G. What do you think?
Well, that's it from me today. I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks so much as always for stopping by. See you back here tomorrow :)
