I chose to use the Mermaid Coffee, as I am a big coffee fan! I have digitally printed the image with the sentiment on to X-Press It Blending card and then coloured with the following Copics markers:

• skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20
• lips - RV66
• eyes - BG53, BG45, BG57
• hair - E13, E15, E17, E19

• purple - V12, V15, V17
• blue - B12, B14, B16, B18
• gold - Y28, Clear Wink of Stella
• grounding - W00, W0, W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, colourless blender
• outline - V17

I have added some black glitter pen to the sentiment, white gel pen to the pearls and eyes and then cut out the image using my paper cutter and adhered it to a white 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 a couple of photos close-up of the colouring before and after I added the grounding and it was adhered to the card:

Christmas Ornaments Challenge for Winter Wonderland for the 2nd of August, 2019

Hi!

At Winter Wonderland this month, we are hosted by Narelle, who has chosen the theme:

Christmas Ornaments!

I immediately think of tinsel! But that is hard to colour - should ask Alyce at Kit and Clowder about that one!! :)

So other ornaments are baubles, stars, lights, holly and anything else that you would use to decorate with during the festive season. 

We have a new house this year for Christmas and I have already started thinking about how we will decorate the house and all the trees in the front yard! Also need to start thinking about decorating inside the house too!

Anyway, that is still a few months away!

So on to my card:

Please remember that it is Christmas projects only and they must include the theme.

We are sponsored this month by....

The prize on offer for the challenge winner is:

two digital stamps from LeAnn's World 101 Etsy shop 

So back to my card:

I digitally printed Decorating LeAnn on to X-Press It blending card, which I then cut out using a KaiserCraft nesting square decorative die. 

I have coloured the image with the following Copics markers:

• skin - E000. E00, E21, E11, E04
• eyes - G21, G07, G28
• lips - RV63, RV66
• hair - E50, E53, E55
• dress - B12, B14, B16, B18
• stocking - R32, R35, R37, G000, YG13, G17, C0, C1, silver Wink of Stella
• candy cane - R35, R37, R39, G000, YG13, G17
• holly - R32, R35, R37, G000, YG13, G17
• gingerbread man - E21, E33, E23, R35, R37, G000, YG13, G17, 100
• string - BG78
• baubles - B63, B66, B69, RV13, RV17, RV19, Y28, white gel pen
• background - BV000, BV00, BV01, BV02
• outline - BV02

The sentiment is from New Year's Eve Marci from La-La Land Crafts, although I think it is not really available anymore - I digitally printed the sentiment on to X-Press It blending card, then used a die edge and my paper cutter to cut it out. I have then coloured it with BV00 and then outlined with BV02.
I have stamped a border from Snuggle Down from Power Poppy using my MISTI and Elderberry Memento ink on to a white card from Envelope Solutions.
Then I have adhered the sentiment and coloured image to the card using double-sided tape.

Here is a close-up of the colouring:

I will add this card to the following challenges:

The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge #53 - Anything Christmas Goes - My Christmas Building card won in the last challenge! So now I can display this badge:

Christmas Gifts - Winter Wonderland Challenge for 20th of July, 2018

I am really late this fortnight for Winter Wonderland as we had a visitor last weekend - my nine year old's Godfather from Germany! It was the first time that we have seen Peter since we left Germany in 2010, so it was very exciting and we had a busy weekend planned showing him our city and surroundings.

Anyway, now that I have finally finished my card for last weekend this weekend, I had better post it!

So here it is:

Hazel is hosting us this fortnight at Winter Wonderland and the theme is Christmas Gifts.

Please remember that it is Christmas projects only and they must include the theme.

We are sponsored this fortnight by LeAnn's World 101

Hello all, my name is LeAnn Wariner. I have been painting and drawing since I was a little girl. I am a nurse by profession but, like many of you, am unable to work due to medical conditions. I began drawing a couple of years ago and now bring to you my digital "Stamps by LeAnn's World 101". I look forward to seeing your colorings and creations. Thank you from my world to yours.

Xoxo LeAnn

The prize on offer for the challenge winner is 2 digital stamps from LeAnn's World 101 Etsy store.

So back to my card:

I digitally printed Santa's Helper on to X-Press It blending card, which I then had my Silhouette Cameo cut out. I have coloured the image with the following Copics markers:

• skin - E000, E00, E02, E21, E11, E04
• eyes - B66
• hair - E33, E35, E37, E39

• background - V20

I have attached my two Santa's Helpers on to a Kraft card from Envelope Solutions.

Then I stamped the sentiment "A little something just for you" from Under Glass: Christmas Keepsakes by Power Poppy using Rich Cocoa Memento Ink.

As I am so late, I was just going to post this, but I had a quick look at my previous post and found that my colouring for Not Just Cards has actually been picked for a 3 month Guest Designer spot! Very exciting!! :)

So I will definitely add this card to the following challenges:
