So how's the weather in your neck of the woods? Here, it's a TAD bit hot...like 105 WITHOUT the heat index! SO creating a Christmas card is nice...makes me think of colder weather! NOT SNOW mind you....gasp, I'm not ready for that! Just COOLER weather...like 75/80 degrees would be nice!
This week at Christmas Stampin' All Year Long (CSAYL), we are being sponsored by In Style Stamps! Have you seen their images? So many to choose from and oh so cute! They are offering up a prize of 4 digital images of your choice so I hope you play along with our challenge this week! Speaking of challenges...this week we'd like to see your Christmas creation using 2 or more designer papers!
Not a problem for me since I have a PAPER addiction! The problem came with WHICH papers to use, lol! I decided to use this fabulous paper from KI Memories. The image, O Christmas Tree, just touches me...I didn't have a brother but I can recall my sister and I decorating the Christmas tree and all the wonderful times we shared. I'm not going to lie...there was also some arguing :) Yes, FUN times!! I used The Sweet Stop Sketch #68 for my design.
I added a little Stickles to the ornaments and garland. I colored the image with my trusty 'ol pencils and OMS. I wasn't sure how to do the window panes. I used a light blue (not sure you can see it) trying to capture that foggy/wintery feel. Do you know what I'm trying to say? How would you do that?
Thank you to In Style Stamps for the gorgeous image. I hope you'll play along! Remember if you do, you'll be entered in the drawing to win 4 digital images that you choose! Just stop by the CSAYL blog and link your creation. While you are there check out all the fabulous creations designed by the DT using In Style Stamps!
Thanks for stopping by!!
