Simon Says Stamp Challenge




The theme this week is christmas !!! I used this gorgeous Tilda image that was sent to me last year that I never got a chance to use (wish I owned this one as I love it) I coloured her using watercolour pencils, I also added some smudged red colour around my image which i thought worked out really well, ive seen people do something like this with copics (which i dont have) and i really like the effect. I added distressed stickles to the snowflakes in the background. The papers are from a papermania stack (I think ?) and the snowflakes are a sizzix die that I have layers and added buttons too. I am really pleased with how this card turned out :) Ive only just found this blog challenge theres a link on my sidebar if you wanna have a nose and join in to.
