I made another Christmas card using one of the images from my House Mouse 'Sleepy Stocking' set. LOTS of colouring on this mage which I love - it did take a while though. It was coloured with Prismacolor + Derwent Coloursoft pencils and OMS, and I added some Polar White FlowerSoft using Aleen's tacky glue to the cuff on the stocking. Because there was so much going on in the image, I kept the rest of the card pretty low key so it didn't make the card look 'too busy' - plus I wanted the image to take centre stage.
I haven't a clue who made the designer paper - it has been in my stash for years and there is no name on it. If you do know, please leave a comment here or on my Blog.
The ribbon was attached in 2 separate elements, and the bow itself was made with my Bow Easy. I tied some gold cord through the sentiment tag hole then tied this around the red ribbon, and glued the bow on top of that. Lastly, I added the 3 red pearls.
I am popping this card into two Challenges. The first is the House Mouse and Friends Challenge #82 which is "You gotta have friends" - of course, the little mouse is sharing the stocking filled with food with his birdie-friend.
The second Challenge is the Crazy 4 Challenges C4C63 Challenge of "A Christmas card or item". Nice and easy.
Thanks for having a peek at my card! Please come and have a peek at my Blog - I have a close-up photo of the FlowerSoft on the stocking - and this link will take you directly to my card: http://instead-of-ironing.blogspot.c...me-treats
