Hello and welcome. Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by Beccy's Place. I would like to thank Beccy for sponsoring our challenge and for providing images for the design team to use. My card uses the Christmas Kitties digital set.
I don't know about you, but for me, 2023 has picked up right where 2022 left off. I've been battling both the flu and a migraine the last few weeks. Fortunately, so far COVID testing has come out negative. Creating has been very hard since I've been feeling so poorly.
After combining my image/saying in a watermark program, I printed it out onto Hammermill white card stock before coloring it using both Lyra and Castle Arts pencils. Once the coloring was finished, I lightly stippled some stormy sky and old paper distress inks using my blending brushes from Picket Fence Studios. After distressing the image panel, and layering, I added it to the card using glue dots before highlighting the eyes/mistletoe using 3D glaze pens. As an afterthought, I added some faux sewing using a Castle Arts copper gel pen before adding a cream rosette bow.
