Christmas in July
This week at creative knockouts the theme is Christmas in July. The image I had to work with is this lovely one from polkadoodles called Hot Chocolate.
I thought it was a bit early for christmas cards but a couple of my grandchildren are already counting down the weeks so maybe it"s not too early
I coloured the image with copics and then covered it with cellophane,the cup and spoon look white but I coloured them in a very light blue along the edges just to give them a bit of depth, I cut the hole in the red card and made a wreath to go around the circle using a leaf punch (there were a few) then I cut some holes with the hole punch to make the berries and used a black roller tip pen to put the dots on them the bells are a die cut..I coloured them with copics as well The lolly backing paper was from a magical stack,I adhered it to the white base card then the main image was adhered to that.I put the image and sentiment on an angle just because it didn't look right to me stuck in the middle The sentiment is a ribbon
So I guess this is the start of my christmas cards
