Winter Gnome





I've coloured the image with Copics, adding some embossing enamel for snow.


I've made a banner out of left over scraps of paper, matted it onto checked design paper and added a sentiment from Hobby Craft.

Tiddly Reindeer

I'm using a Tiddly Inks image for my Outlawz Sketch Creation this month.

We've no sponsor this time, so that gives me an opportunity to colour some images in my stash I've had to do, like FOREVER!

This image is called Reindeer Games, I've coloured it with my Copics.



This is our sketch until 2nd January.


Ive used design paper from Maja Design and some Kraft card.



The sentiment, ribbon and wooden start I've also had in my stash for ages, about time I stopped hoarding! :D

Thanks for popping by today, we hope to see you at the challenge.

Christmas Puppy

Today I have the honour of being a guest designer with Through the Purple Haze :)

I'm using this little cutie Lucky Present Christmas Puppy Dog for my inspiration.  He's been coloured with my Copics.


I've layered the card with desgin papers from Maja Design and First Edition.


I had a few left over scraps and a giant snowflake sticker which I cut in half.  No other embellies on this one :)

Bit of a Green Thing Going on....

 Today is our new challenge day at All Dressed Up in the Facebook Group.

This month we'd love to see your layered cards.


I've chosen to use Christmas Tree Fairy for my inspiration, which I've coloured with Copics and a white acrylic pen.

I've lots of layers here with lots of design papers from First Edition, Lemoncraft, some scraps and black card.


Very unusual for me on this style of card, there are no embellies at all - what happened to me LOL!!

Don't forget we also have the challenge blog, where you can get a second chance to win, just check the rules out :)

Rest your wings.....

 I decided Morpheus needed to be added to the Christmas images, so I've drawn him curled around a bauble asleep.  Each time I draw him he evolves a little, one day he may become a BIG dragon!

Anyways.... you can find this image (Christmas Snooze) here in the shop where you can get 10% off all images by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.



I've coloured the image with Copics and added a magical background with some Copic cleaner and a white acrylic paint pen.


I wanted to keep it nive and simple to showcase the card, so all I've added is some green glitter paper and some left over paper from 13Arts.  The sentiment "Rest your wings" was made from Tim Holtz stickers.

Thanks for popping by for a look today :)

On the Fence

It's time for our Facebook Challenge at SheepSki Designs, this month our optional twist is GEMS, SPARKLE, SHINE.  I'm doing the anything goes for this month.



I've coloured the image with Copics and sprinkled a little embossing enamel for a snow effect.


My design papers are from Maja Design and I've also used some red card.  The snow man button and Merry Christmas sentiment I got in Hobby Craft ages ago.

Thanks for popping by for a look today, hope to see you at the challenge.
