At Winter Wonderland this month, we are hosted by Stacey!
Welcome to our seventh challenge for 2021.
Our theme is:
Christmas Music or Songs
So here is my card:
Please remember that it is Christmas projects only and they must include the theme of Christmas Birds, which means that we want to see big and/or small birds on your projects.
We have Stampers Delights as our sponsor this month and Stacey chose 3 very cute digi stamps from Stampers Delights for us to use.
Prize: 3 signal images of your choice
I chose Believe in Yourself.
So I have digitally printed the image and the sentiment on to X-Press It blending card and then cut out using my paper cutter (I have a new one from Creative Memories).
I have coloured the image and sentiments with the following Copics markers:
- skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20, R30
- eyes - BG53, BG45, BG57
- hair - W3, W5, W7, W9
- red - R32, R35, R37, R39, R59
- green - G03, G05, G07, G28
- microphone - Y28, gold glitter pen
- background - BG0000, B0000, B000, B00
- outline - BG57
- sentiments - purple glitter pen
I then adhered the coloured image on to a kraft card from Envelope Solutions.
As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Monthly Classes and Bonus Classes from the awesome Alyce at Kit and Clowder.
Here is a close-up of the colouring (hope that you can see some sparkle!):

Lou this isn't an image I would have used for a Christmas card but it works really well due to the colours you used.I love how you coloured it and the texture in the hair.
