Please remember that it is Christmas projects only and they must include the theme of Anything But a Card.

We have Stampers Delights as our sponsor this month and Stacey chose 3 very cute digi stamps from Stampers Delights for us to use.

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/stampersdelights/

Prize:  2 images of your choice 

I chose Chibi Holly Coco, which I have digitally printed with two of the sentiments on to X-Press It blending card and then cut out using my paper cutter.

I have coloured the image with the following Copics markers:

• skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20
• hair - E13, YR14, E15, E18
• eyes - BG53, BG57, BG49
• red - R24, R27, R29
• green - G05, G07, G09
• blue - B12, B14, B16, B18
• blue pants - B95, B97, B99
• grey/white - C0, C1, C3
• brown shirt - E50, E51, E53
• holly berries - R37, R59
• holly leaves - YG25, YG67, G29
• bell - reds and Y26, YR23, YR27
• snow flakes - Twinkle Stickles
• grounding - BV0000, BV000, BV00
• background - BG0000, BG000, BG02
• outlines - B18

I then adhered the coloured image on to a white square card from Envelope Solutions.

For the inside, I have die cut a pocket from a paper called Designer Squares Australian Christmas Animals by Jocelyn Proust (a paper pack that I picked up from Spotlight last Christmas) using the Left Pocket Die from La-La Land Crafts. Then I added a second sentiment that I outlined in B18 above the pocket.

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!):
