Outlawz Wednesday Sketch Challenge
Christmas
Shopping Done
A great sketch this week and like the design team I decided it was time I started making some Christmas cards.
I have been really slack this year as by now I would have had most of them done. I think the count this year is 3 so only about 42 to go. Thought I would give the copics a rest and do some water colouring. Distress inks are my favourite to watercolour with and I usually manage to not make to much mess with them. Happy with the finish on this cute image from LOTV called Jenny-All Shopped but found it is no longer available. That seems to be happening a lot lately but I love using my old favourites. The image was cut out with a Spellbinders circle die then adhered to another circular die from Couture Creations from their Bobtail Set. The holly leaves I drew then coloured and cut out. I couldn't find the stamp I wanted so this was the next best thing. Added some pearls then cut a Cheery Lynn Snowflower die for the top right corner. All the PP is old leftover pieces and I can't remember the companies.
