Well, it's Monday, what more can I say lol? I hope you had a fun weekend. It's not long now till Christmas ... are you ready? I've got a couple more Christmas cards I'm working on. I actually have enough for this year so I guess I'm getting a good start on next year's cards. I have so many Christmas images I had hoped to get colored before the holidays and it looks like I'm not going to get to all of them. I know most people are tired of making Christmas cards already ... but not me. They are some of my most favorites to work on ;)
This sweet image is "a la modes Candy Cane Kisses" by My Favorite Things. I don't see her on their website so I think she may have been discontinued. I have had this stamp set for quite awhile and couldn't let another year pass without getting her inky! She's colored with copics and colored pencils and I used Glamour Dust on her candy cane for a touch of sparkle. MFT holds a sketch challenge on Splitcoast Stampers each week and I finally was able to play along. You can find all challenge details here.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Enjoy your day!
Hugs, Anita
