Sweet Like Candy...

Hello lovelies, Nicola here today with my project for today's design team post.

I have made a Christmas card for my Mum using a digi stamp by the fabulous Sherri Baldy

I absolutely love this digi, it is called "Sweet Candy Cane" and you can buy her HERE


I have chosen to go with traditional Christmas colours of red and green and I love using buttons so have added some of these on too for embellishment. I have also added a candy cane embellishment that I had and decorated with matching twine too. The greeting I typed out using my computer. Hope you like my card...

 

I have coloured the image using Letraset Promarker Pens in the following shades:

 

Skin Tone: Almond ~ Putty ~ Pale Pink

Eyes: Tea Green and also added a shimmer using a Sakura Gelly Roll Pen Clear Star

Hair: Tan ~ Sandstone ~ Cocoa

Clothes & Candy Cane: Poppy ~ Crimson ~ Cardinal Red ~ Pear Green ~ Olive Green

Outer Edge of Image: Warm Grey 1

 

The decorative paper I have used is some I already had in my crafty stash and I think it co-ordinates with the colours I've used perfectly.

 

Thank you for stopping by today and I look forward to showing you my next project soon!

 

Merry Christmas Everyone,

lots of love

Nicola XXX
