Winter Blues

It’s time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and this time the challenge is…..

‘Winter Blues’.

This week, as always, we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter and Veronica & Pedro are offering a fabulous prize of $30 to spend at their site.

Challenge prize badge

If you use a TPS image in your creation you will receive the full $30 to spend on their gorgeous designs, and if you haven’t used a TPS image then you will win 3 Digis of your choice from their site.

I’m using the very cute Warm in the Winter image today and have created a very simple ‘wintery’ card.

P1050346

My image was printed onto X-Press It Blending card and coloured with my Copic Markers.

The colours I’ve used are: E11, E00, E000, R20, E57, E55, E53, E51, E50, C8, C6, C4, C2, C1, C00, B99, B97, B95, B93, B91.

I’ve added some ‘True Snow’ to the snow covered areas of the image to add some dimension.

Here’s a close up of the image.
