I am so excited to be the December Guest Designer for Nina at "There's Magic in the Air"! What a blessing to be here working with such a talented group of people! I am spending a lot of time pinching myself!
For my first project, I am using Nina's adorable "Sweet Trouble" image. We were all given a photo of Kim's sweet little pup, Malie, for inspiration. Kim's challenge for us was to make a clean and simple card, using no brads, buttons, bows, or anything else that might make it challenging to mail. Of course, a color requirement of PINK must appear on our card as well!
I paper pieced Sweet Trouble's body, clothing, and the candy cane holder with scraps from my stash. The ribbon, bow, candy canes, and dots on the scalloped edge were colored with a red Sharpie. Glossy Accents finished the candy canes, bow, and ribbon. I used some white Fun Flock for the fur on this cute little guys hat, and for the snow. The sponging was done with TAC's Ballet Blue.
Be sure to go to "There's Magic in the Air" to get this FREE and adorable image for your own! Create your project using this image, and enter it in Nina's weekly challenge. You could be the lucky winner! I can't wait to see YOUR creation! Before you leave, click on the link on my sidebar to check out the upcoming Blog Hop at "There's Magic in the Air", as well!
Thanks for stopping by - have a great day!
