PTI MAKE IT MONDAY #235: ADDING COLOR TO STAMPED IMAGES

Happy End of December.  I hope you all had a nice Christmas and holiday season.  I love this time of year.  :)

I wanted to play along with PTI's Make it Monday challenge this week since I love the card so much that Laurie made.  I love everything about her original card.  I made one similar as I new I would have to case her sketch as soon as I saw it.  She is very talented.  :)

I used many of the same supplies, including PTI inks and colored pencils, as well as the Fresh Floral Wrap Ups stamps and dies.  I didn't use OMS, but the blender pencil that is part of the Prismacolor line.  If you haven't tried the colorless blender pencil you might want to check it out.  It blends colored pencils with little effort and gives just the right finishing touch.  I only recently discovered this pencil and I am enjoying its effects.

Here is my take on this week's challenge.  

Thanks for looking.  Have a great week and a Happy New Year!

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hello!  I am enjoying this time of year.  Festive lights, kind gestures, Christmas music, goodies, the delight of children, and most important of all, the celebration of the birth of Our Savior Jesus Christ.  Here is a link to a short nativity video that I really like:  A Savior is Born

I have been making some Christmas cards for friends and family and just for fun.  Here are a few I wanted to share.

These two cards are made from MFT stamps and dies.  Such a cute stamp set.

These two are made with Papertrey Ink and MFT products.

This last one is a simple Merry Christmas card that I also really like.

Thanks for looking.  Have a wonderful Christmas.  :)
