Santa Claus is Coming



Morning my lovelies, thank you all so much for the wonderful comments on here and facebook what a fantastic welcome back.  Now I know I said I wouldn't be blogging everyday but as I have a FEW!!!!! cards already made with my new Lili of the Valley Christmas 2013 release, theres no time like the present to get them up and blogged.




Today its the turn of  Santa to make an appearance  I really enjoyed colouring him, took some time but think it was worth it, again I used Copic Ciaos, Copic Markers and Poylchromos Pencils (as usual Nos used are below).  Lots of Fran-tage Aged Aqua Embossing Enamel used on this one, I die cut the star and tree on white card and covered with the embossing powder, this time I did use an embossing pad as I wanted a full coverage.

I spent a couple of hours in the loft yesterday and found my Magnolia Christmas Papers so of course had to use them, they were perfect for the card I had in mind.  Lots of Magnolia Dies used here including: Sprawling Fern, So Wrapped Tilda Lace, Christmas Tree.  The Roses are made with a mixture of Roll Up Rose Dies.  The Gorgeous Lace, Charm and Rustic Bells are all from The Ribbon Girl.




I am going to practice my photography today, plus I am hoping to buy the Paintshop Pro download so I can get a better editing suite.  Before I go here are the Copics I have used:

Reds: R89, R37, R29, R24, R22
Green: YG99, YG95, YG93
Greys: C6, C3, C2, C1, C0
Browns: E40, E37, E15, E11, E21, E34, E00, E000, E74, E70

Hugs
