The High Hopes Challenge this week is to make a card using this fabulous sketch..created by Katharina. Be sure to go to the High Hopes Challenge blog to participate and see the Gorgeous creations the other Divas have come up with!
On this card I have used "Holly the Winter Fairy" this is a High Hopes New Release stamp....you can see all the Fabulous New Releases right here. The Joy sentiment on this card is created using SU ...."The Snowflake Spot".
Holly is colored with prismacolor pencils(oms) and Twinkling h20's to deepen the shading. The details are done with white acrylic paint. I cut Holly out and used foam dimensionals to pop her up.
Ink - versafine black, cranberry crisp, creamy caramel
Paper - Georgia Pacific white, Imagine that, basic grey, SU ruby red
Accessories - prima flowers, button, cord, Martha Stewart punch for leaves, Glitter, scribbles for fur, stickles, stitching, ribbons
It is very cold here and we have had some horrible winds the last few days. I hope it warms up for Halloween......or we are going to have a lot of candy to eat...lol.
Wow.....look at my counter....over 100,000 hits....Thank you all so much!!! I will definitely be celebrating. I will be announcing my candy soon ........but right now I'm waiting for something special to come for it.
Thanks for looking Everyone!!.....and for your Lovely comments!!! Have a Wonderful Day!!!
