Here’s my card…

The sentiment is a new stamp by Printworks collection, the glitter brads are from Making Memories, the pine needle border punch is from Martha S. and the pattern paper is by SEI.
Here’s a close-up…

I am totally blown away with how real the lights and the pine look! The image is colored with copic sketch markers…just amazing tools!!!! LOVE THEM!!!  I followed Marianne’s tutorial for coloring pine. The link is on the Copic Creations blog for this challenge.  Happy coloring!

A couple close-ups…love this holly die from Quickutz! The jingle bells sentiment is from Stampendous and of course I should mention that the snowman sleigh stamp is from Whipper Snapper and colored with my copic sketch markers. Papers are from Memory Box and Bazzill. Snowman scene border and snowflake punches are Martha Stewart. Stickles glitter glue and Marvy snow marker add to the snowy effect…I hope! I’m really not ready for the real stuff! I wanted to tell you that I punched the die and punches out of white card-stock and colored them with my copic sketch markers…same colors I used on the image.

angelicasnowman09
I’ve colored Angelica with my copic markers for the 15th Copic Creations Challenge. I used E08, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21 for her red hair.
This is an adorable new stamp from Inky Impressions rubber stamps. Be watching for the release with a blog hop by the Inkettes on November 6th! Hurrah…love Winter stamps! Nicole, Inky Impressions owner graciously let me use this new image for this challenge. I have some other red-heads on my blog here, here, here and here.

If you click on the picture of the card, it takes you to my flickr account page and  you can select a larger size to see the plastic straw that is his mouth!!!  How fun is that!  It’s even a bendy straw! lol  Right above the photo on the flickr page, in the middle it says “all sizes”,  click there and select large and you can see the straw better!  This is really a 5×7 (A-7)  size card but of course you can’t load it that large to your blog.

Mary is offering an outstanding prize this month to 7KidsCollegeFund online store. 7 Kids has everything your little heart desires in the way of stamping and coloring supplies and the prize is $35 to spend there! woohoo…bummer, I want to play! lol  Don’t miss out and see all the details at Copic Creations Challenge blog! The Eligiblity rules are on the right and the other design team submissions are in the post! Awesome red-heads! Some of you know we have a bunch in our family! Two of our three daughters are red-heads and four of our nine grandchildren are red-heads! Just found out yesterday that we’ll have another one next year end of June. I need to stay young! lol
