Even the Naughty deserve something Nice!

 

It’s time for a new challenge over at ABC Challenges.

Our challenge for you today is ‘X is for Xtra Special’.

Our sponsor for this challenge is KennyK.

I decided to create a Christmas card using Mrs Claus.

P1050255

I’ve kept my card CAS as I wanted the image to stand out long with the pretty paper. I also knew exactly who I’d give this too and Christmas and CAS is more them.

I’ve printed my image onto Cryogen White cardstock, coloured with Copic Markers and then cut out on my Silhouette Cameo.

The colours I’ve used are as follows: Skin – E11, E00, E000, R20; Hair – E49, E57, E55, E53, E51; Clothes & Hat - R29, R27, R24, R22; Sack, Belt, Garter & Boots - C10, C8, C6, C4; Holly - YG67, YG63; Bells - YR24, YR23, YR21.

Here’s a closer look at the image.
