I'm back again with my second post today...very excited because this is my first DT card for Christmas at Sweet Stampin'. The theme is a very easy one ...Anything goes as long as it's Christmas! Our sponsor for this month is Ppinkydolls, who gave the DT some lovely digis to play with. I've never coloured any of these cute and whimsical images before, they are already shaded so I thought I'd have a go with distress inks, I think the soft look they give quite suits this little girl, but will try with the copics next time! After colouring my image I masked it off and stencilled the trees in the background.
Thanks for taking the time to visit, just click here to be transported to the Challenge Blog where you can see what my lovely new teamies have created with these images, then you have a whole four weeks to join in! Remember to include some stamping!

This is adorable. Your coloring is fab with your Distress Inks! The stenciled trees behind the image are a fabulous background! The die cut trees are wonderful, too. I love this card and the little wood tree with the sentiment is precious. GREAT card! Hugs, Gail
