Apologies for the delay in posting this - I have come down with laryngitis and bronchitis - I finished my card and sent it through to Kelly and went to bed!
Anyway....
Welcome to my post about my card for challenge #215, the 1st of October 2023 challenge for the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.
Here is my completed card:
I chose to use Christmas Gnomes Slimline, which I have digitally printed the image on to X-Press It Blending card and then coloured with the following Copics markers:
- skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, R20
- eyes - BG53
- hair - E33, E35, E37, E39
- beards - C00, C0, C1, C3
- red - R22, R24, R27, R39
- green - YG21, YG03, YG17
- shoes - C5, C7
- star - YR14, Y17
- reindeer - E13, E15, E17
- mug/presents - B12, B14, B16, B18
- grounding - N1, N3, N5
- background - BV000, BV00, BV01
- outline - V25
I also used nuvo crystal drops in Silver Moondust and Morning Dew, white gel pen and Wink of Stella on the image.
I have cut out the coloured image with my paper cutter and outlined it. I then stamped a sentiment from Happiest of Holidays by La-La Land Crafts in bamboo leaves Memento ink using my MISTI on to a white slimline card from Envelope Solutions.
As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.
Here are some photos of the image during colouring and just before it was adhered to the card:
