Christmas Card used LOTV James in the snow



Hello....My second post of the day :)

I have to change my plan slightly...I mentioned previously that I would be sharing some of my recent Christmas cards that I made next week. After I see the LOTV challenge blog, I decided ok  must start showing today because this month challenge is Christmas in August which is perfect for my cards. ^_^ Hoping to win the first prize ^_^ or any of the prize.

 

I have made a promise that this year I have to use most of my unused stamps from LOTV. So for the first batch I picked up few James bear from LOTV and colour them. I have managed to coloured 10 of them and now in the process to make it into card ^_^. I left with 3 more..yay!

 

So I will be sharing one of it today.

To be frank I haven't shopped for any Christmas embellishment for this year and I am hopping no need because I plan to wait till end of the year or early next year when shops start to do some clearing by giving a big discount..i would say that is the wise step.

So for this card, I am using my old pattern paper from echo park, I think it is 2011 series. still loving the classic and original colour for Christmas season.

 I stamped James in the snow and coloured him with my colour pencils. Surprisingly I love how it is turn out. ^_^. I guess I am pretty good at colour pencils than other media.

Adding few dots used gel pens on the face and body to highlight the darker area.. I think I would say he looks good with all of those dots ^_^. 



Since I will be making a lot of Christmas card with similar image, therefore I want to have a little fun with the card fold. ^_^

 

And here is a little close up of the James the bear.

 

Would love to enter this card for

Hope you like my card today and will be back with another Christmas card soon. Thank you for stopping by.
