A Wee card

I've managed to colour in a Wee digi image I'd printed out before we moved, this one is called Christmas bunny and isn't he the cutest! I've used my Copics: E50, 51, 53 and 55 for bunny and the sled. Pinks and reds are R20, 22, 24, 27 and 29. The greens are YG00, 03 and 17 whilst the aqua tones on the snow and the parcel are actually G000 and G00.

Here's the card, a simple layout with what I had unpacked .. .. ..

I've added the white dots to the parcel with a marker pen and highlighted with Stardust Stickles. The papers are digi designs from Cuddly Buddly that I had already printed out in my stash, and everything is edged with a silver pen I forgot I had! Finally to finish off I punched out the silver snowflakes, added a length of gross grain ribbon and a few AB gems.

I don't know of any challenges I can enter with this one, so please let me know if you can think of any. I am into making Christmas cards at the moment, possibly because those are the stamps that didn't get put into boxes in the loft .. .. but then again I will need quite a few crimbo cards this year so had better make another one to share tomorrow!

Ooo I found a couple of challenges .. .. new ones to me! The first is called Clearly iStamp - but you can use digi images. The current challenge is to use patterned paper and I've used 2 different designs, there is a subtle snowflake pattern on the paler paper with little robins and holly leaves on the top coordinating layer. The second one is Card Makin Mamas and they want you to go digital - perfect as that's what I've done!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, although it's raining here in Cornwall and the roads are packed with the mass exit of holiday makers - I'm looking forward to the empty beaches!

  2. Lovely card Annie, that image is so cute. I just caught yesterday's gorgeous card too. My internet connection has been really bad this week and I've hardly been able to visit anyone. At the moment I'm still having to sit in a certain part of the room to use it.

    Nice to see you blogging again.

    We have pretty dreadful weather here too - apparently 12-14 hrs of rain is imminent. I'm so glad you manage to have some time for your own things.

    Take care
