Little Critter Christmas

Hi there everyone.....hope you are having a delightful day!  The weather is a changing, but this is the type of weather I enjoy......comfortable!  Now, of course I should be working, but then again.....


Because my time is somewhat limited these days, I'm trying to make up some cards with images that I've coloured previously. (they've been waiting patiently!)  This little cutie is from Pink Gem Designs, and it is called Reindeer and Robin.   It has a nice young theme, and I've worked it up in soft non-traditional colours, using Prisma pencils and OMS.


For the layout, I've followed along with the sketch challenge at A Gem of a Challenge, using an embossed card blank and adding another embossed panel for the contrast.  Both have been brayered using DI, and some silver peel-offs provide the edging and the bit of embellishment on the corner piece.

Just a few gems and pearls and a bit of floral trim....and I'm done.

Hope you enjoyed my card...until next time, have a great day!

  5. Cute card Joyce. The weather is changing here too, but we are in the middle of a 'heat wave' at the moment - the sun and sky have been wonderful today.
    Take care of you both.
