Merry Monday #58 - Guest Designer

Hi! Well I'm honored this week to be a Guest Designer over at Merry Monday!!!

Here's the sketch we have to play with:

And my contribution:

I have varied the sketch a little, by pulling circle up a bit, so that I could use it highlight Mary and baby Jesus. I stamped the image in staz on onto watercolour paper, then masked it and brayered the background using bashful blue, baja breeze and marina mist. I then coloured the image with my aqua pen and then punched out my circle and layered onto so saffron with dimensionals. I coloured, fussy cut and mounted with dimensionals the star and covered it with glossy accents. If you have any question, just ask :)

Now I know you will want to check out the other amazing creations the design team have created. Thank you Lesley and girls for letting me share my card on your fantastic challenge :)

Thanks for looking

Hi! I had some time this morning, so thought I'd give the sketch over at Merry Monday a go.

I dont know why, but all I could see is trees and so I've taken a lot of creative license to create my card - hope thanks ok :)

I used my petite pennant punch to create the trees and used some jolly holiday dsp - I seriously think this paper has multiplied in my stash, as I never seem to get close to running out :)!

Go and check out the amazing creations and inspiration from the design team here - you wont be disappointed!

Thanks for looking :)

Wow this is my second post for today :) This time I'm sharing a card for this weeks Merry Monday sketch challenge.

Here's my creation:

And the sketch:

I love these little penguins! The images and sentiment are from 'polar party' and I masked them off to stamp the trees in the background. I pulled out my 'jolly holiday' dsp, as I have a ton of this one!!

Any questions just ask & thanks for looking :)
