However, I do have another Christmas card to share with you today. As you no doubt know, the current challenge at Crafty Boot Challenges is 'Christmas in July' and I have stumbled across some wonderful wintry scenes which are just perfect for Christmas cards.
This image is from Delicious Doodles and it is called 'Snowy Stop-Over'. I have used my F&C polychromos pencils to colour the image - these Delicious Doodles images seem to be made for pencils and I have had so much fun colouring them.
I added some twinkle to all of the snow with a clear Wink of Stella Brush Pen. All of the papers used on this card are Papermania's First Noel pack.
I have actually made three similar Christmas cards using these papers and Delicious Doodles images, come back tomorrow and I will share another one of them with you.

Wow Dee, you did such an amazing job colouring this image, I thought it was pre-coloured!! It's such a wonderful wintery scene, I'm glad you let it stand on it's own. hugs :)

DeleteI have to hold my hands up and confess that these Delicious Doodles images all are so easy to to colour, just a few colours here and there and sometimes a little more grey to make the existing shading darker. Really simple.
I discovered that the Gordon Arms Hotel is a real place, in Scotland. I think that is why I chose the tartan paper and, in truth I did not want to over dress these images, they are just too gorgeous.

So lovely Dee, I love the scene

Many thanks Jacee.
DeleteStunning colouring again and the touch of sparkle is just perfect, loving these cards.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisette, I have to admit that I have really enjoyed colouring this artwork, they look like little old fashioned postcards when they are finished. I just wish you could see the sparkle better, the WoS Brush is more subtle than glitter and looks great on snow but is is rather camera shy.
