CC977 - JOY OF NOEL

Photo Details

Poster: Karen B Barber

It's always fun to switch gears and color with something besides my favorite blends, so it was fun to use watercolor pencils on crumb cake cs-- it has it's very own look and I love it! I also love these colors! Happy Tuesday everyone!

I love how you colored this--wow! Plus the large bow on the side it just the right touch. Wonderful card!

I love how this turned out, Karen! Your white dots, though tiny, add your special character. Your colors are so vibrant and beautiful.

Pencils on crumb cake always produce a beautiful result and your coloring is outstanding. I love your card and the bold signature bow.

Fantastic stamping and coloring on the Crumb Cake. Beautifully framed and displayed on the embossed card base. The bow on the side is just right. Fabulous use of the challenge colors!

Coloring on the crumb cake was so smart - and so very different. Love the ribbon and framing.

I love the way you arranged the holly sprigs, Karen, and the entire layout of the card. Love your work with the watercolor pencils, too!

Beautifully colored Christmas foliage. The white gel pen added some wonderful highlights.

I love the Crumb Cake Bkgd. And the white highlights pop against the darker colors.

Beautiful Christmas card, Karen. Love the holly, pine and ripe, shiny berries in an overall pattern. The rustic fabric ribbon/bow accent them all so nicely.

It really is fun to switch things up now and then. Great "shine" on your berries and pretty sparkly sequins. Christmas greenery has always been a favorite of mine, so you know how I feel about this one. Wonderful job with the pencils on crumb cake cs. I don't think I've ever tried that....
