Good evening!
Have you been (un)lucky enough to have had some snow where you are? We haven't...bit miffed actually as I love it when it snows! Oh well...it'll be here soon enough I'm sure!
Anyway, I had an order for a batch of 25 cards for a customer and so I wanted something fairly simple and easy, but not too simple. So here is what I came up with, thanks to Jen for lending me the stamp!
The stamp is from Lili of The Valley and I coloured it with Crumb Cake, Riding Hood Red, Gumball Green and Basic Black Stampin' Up! markers. It's the first time I have used them to colour an image in as I usually use alcohol markers. To get the patches on the cute little fella I coloured the entire dog with Crumb Cake, then when it dried I coloured some patches in with the same colour. All my shading has been done in this way. The DP is from a Forever Friends set. I finished with a mini Woodware holly punch and some Liquid Pearls for berries.
I didn't have room to photograph all 25 cards, so here are 10 of them!
