Let's Play Snowballs

Hi Everyone

Here is my latest DT creation for Sweet November Stamps

 

 

 

As you may know we run a monthly challenge in the Friends of Sweet November Facebook Group  This month however we are running an extra one alongside it.  Its a weekly scene colouring and we are on week 2 which is the theme of your favourite winter outdoor activity

Well if you know me you will know that I hate being out in the cold lol.  So this was a hard one for me.  Living in the South of the UK we rarely see any snow but on the rare occasions we have had more than a tiny flurry the first thing we do is get the kids dressed up and go and throw the cold wet stuff at each other lol.  I will never understand why we do this as its freezing but its a bit of fun lol

So I chose a this cute snowball throwing image called Winter Kids Max and coloured him and the whole scene using Copics.

The snowy trees are from the Horizon Lines: Winter Wonderland Clear Stamp Set and I used a cloud die and distress inks to create the sky

To help get everyone's mojo back (including mine) there is a colouring challenge happening in the Friends of Sweet November Facebook Group  This is in addition to the monthly challenge so if you join in with this one you could then add your project to the monthly challenge album and increase your chances of winning!

 

It's week one and I have completed this card using the scene requirement (below)  Don't worry if you haven't started yet, as long as all four scenes are in the album by the 29th January you can do them at your own pace

I have coloured this whole scene using Copics

Valentine Gnome

 Hi Everyone

Here I am sharing another inspiration for the Pink Gem Etsy Shop 

 

Does anyone else lose their mojo completely in December?  I do every year but this year it was extreme, it was like it was on the opposite side of the world lol. I am pleased to say that now the stress of Christmas is out of the way it is finding its way back to me and I feel happy to be colouring again!

 

Valentine's Day is the next event and its just around the corner.  Whilst I do not do all the mushy stuff my kids do lol.  This card is for my Son to give to his Girlfriend.

 

For this card I have used the Valentine Gnome Digi Stamp and coloured him up using Copics
