Pixie Dust Studios Challenge Blog - A Sketch!


It's Christmas in July over on the Pixie Dust Studios challenge blog. This week we want you to use our sketch and make a Christmas card with it. For my card I have used a non Christmas image...just to show you that loads of different images will work as Christmas cards. I have used an image called Pixie Pie is Catching Hearts (I can't see it in the shop, so you may need to contact Kathy and ask about her as she is an older image). I have coloured her with Copics using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Hair - 100/C3
Clothing - C3/C5/R81/R83/R85
The papers are all DCWV Rose Tinted Christmas and I have added some Doodlebug Sugar Coated cardstock in black for a little extra sparkle...a pixie can never sparkle too much. I have embellished the card with a couple of Heart Pins, a dotted ribbon bow and a old bauble sentiment by Craftwork Cards...plus of course a little jet black bling.

Be sure to pop on over to the Pixie Dust Studios challenge blog to see the other wonderful Christmas creations.
