A little early Christmas Joy!

It's Monday! Which means I only work a half day! Woohoo! Gotta Love it! I'm so excited to share a new card for TiddlyInks Challenge Blog! This week challenge #22 was a sketch challenge! I decided to color Christmas Joy! Isn't she a doll!I love a good excuse to color with Copics :) I used some beautiful paper by Making Memories, And poinsettas from Prima! Doesn't this put you in a jolly mood? You know we are only 89 days away from Christmas! LOL! For the white trim I found out I was out of white flock and I didn't really want glitter, so I tried a fun and super easy was to make your own "flowersoft". I took a syrofoam circle and ran my scissors up and down. So all the little white pieces fell into a bowl I had set out. Add some clear drying glue and its an easy way to add some texture to a card! (Adding alcohol inks can change the color of your flowersoft!) I'm also entering this at Totally Gorjuss, for helping me get a jump on my Christmas cards! Thanks for stopping by!
