Ho Ho Ho and Merry Christmas to all of you! OK, if you're thinking I've lost my mind ... you're wrong. (Well, actually you're not wrong but that's a story for another day!) Over at the Pollycraft Monday Challenge Blog, it's Christmas in July! That's right ... our lovely leader, Paula, has chosen Christmas as our theme this week.
I used "All The Trimmings" from the Swings and Slides - Deck the Halls collection. You can find this adorable image at the Pollycraft shop. I colored this beautiful little girl with copics and colored pencils. I used Glamour Dust on her dress, hat, the ornament, and the snowflakes. I used a tiny bit of Glossy Accents on the berries in her hair. I added two tiny pearls to her dress and some larger pearls in the middle of the snowflakes. Well, these aren't your traditional Christmas colors but I had this Basic Grey paper (that I've been hoarding) and I decided it was time to use it.
Now please stop by the Pollycraft Monday Challenge Blog to check out the gorgeous work by the DT. While you're there you can get all the details to enter our challenge. I hope you join in our challenge this week as the prize is Pollycraft digis! The winner will win a gift voucher from Crafty Emma's Store.
Thank you for stopping by!
