I colored the image with mainly green and purple Promarkers and a silver gel pen.
I stamped a few snowflakes in silver (they're not easy to spot on this photo), added glossy accent to the baubles, frantage and glitter for snow.
The papers used are green and purple, the same as the main colors used for the image.
Three snowflake sequins and pearls, a sentiment, and that was it.

Your snowy little decorator is sweet as can be, Pia! That lovely green background, the daring "round" theme that includes the pearls, cheeks, sentiment, baubles and snowflakes, right down to the bell on his hat - all make for an interesting, fun card! Beautifully colored, too! hugs, de

Love that green paper that seems wood, and the colours of the image match perfectly with the papers! Beautiful stamps! Silver and metals are always very difficult to show in photo, but I can see the shine of these snowflakes and looks so pretty!

Your elf and coloring are fabulous, like the sparkle and your background too!
ReplyDeleteI love the purple and green together.
ReplyDeleteVery dramatic colors with the greens & purples. It's a surprise holiday color combination and I like it very much. Delightful image with this little elf struggling to carry the ornaments, and your coloring is superb. Also like the circles set atop the pale green striations of this woodgrained background. It's gorgeous! TFS & have a great upcoming week
ReplyDeleteSo cuuuuuuuuute, Pia! He is adorable and I love your non-traditional colour scheme! Beautiful woodgrain in the background too!
ReplyDeleteSweet Christmas Card, Pia. I like the woodgrain Background and how you´ve added the snow dots.
