Hello bloggers! How is your week going? Mine has been alright. I was kinda wishing I had taken a vacation day on Wednesday after my alarm went off at 3:50 am though...LOL!
Anyway, I'm here to share my card for the Christmas With The Cuties challenge, Festive Furry Friends:
I couldn't resist using this Barry image from the Stamp Fairy store (sadly, now closed) that I had printed out. Barry was my favorite character in the store, and I wish I had been able to buy more images before the store closed! At any rate, I colored him with alcohol markers, using warm grays for his fur, and gave him some darker gray dots (a la Nichol Spohr) for texture. I colored his hat and scarf to go with the colors of the patterned paper I used, which is called Holiday Magic Snowflakes from The Paper Studio. It is a 12x12 sheet of paper that I bought several of at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago when they were on sale. Oh boy, is it gorgeous!! To accent the strip of patterned paper, I added small slivers of pinky-purple glitter paper to each side. To add even more glitter, I used some yellow Stickles on the stars, and Diamond Ice Stickles on the snowflakes in the image.

The Holly and Ivy Christmas challenge #30: ATG Christmas
Thanks for joining me today! My younger daughter graduates high school tomorrow, with a job already lined up for after she turns 18 on June 17th. I am so happy for her! The only glitch is that she doesn't have a car or know how to drive yet, so my poor hubby will be dropping her off every morning, and then we'll have to pick her up in the evening. But, one day at a time!
God Bless, and have a good day!
