Christmas Chaos by Dr Digi Stamps for Little Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge #287 on the 4th of October, 2026


Hi All!
I'm back home and recovering from three straight weeks of travel for work and we have a long weekend this weekend as we have Labour Day holiday on Monday and I'm having a few days off to hopefully do some cleaning upstairs!
Anyway, welcome to my post about my card for challenge #287 on the 4th of October 2026 for the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.

Here is my card:

Our sponsor for this challenge is Dr Digis House of Stamps:



Prize is 1 image

I chose Christmas Chaos, which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and coloured with the following Copics markers and PrismaColour Pencils:
  • green - YG61, YG63, YG67, G99
  • red - R24, R27
  • yellow - Y11, Y35, Y38, YR23
  • cat - W0, W1, W3, W5, R20
  • angel - V91, E21, C1
  • lights - Y38, BV29, PC950 Metallic Gold
  • gingerbread - E13, PC925 Crimson Lake, PC935 Black
  • trunk - E23, E97, E27
  • tops of ornaments - PC950 Metallic Gold
  • grounding/shadows - C1, C3
As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at The Colouring Channel (formerly Kit and Clowder) and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Here is a close up of the colouring before I adhered it to the card:

I die cut the image from the largest of the Postage Rectangles Die by La-La Land Crafts. I cut a green card (from my stash) in half, distressed the edges with a paper distressing tool, then adhered the coloured image on to it. I then adhered the matted image on to a Kraft card from Envelope Solutions.

Here is another photo of the finished card:
