Last month I watched a video where Kristy (the owner of Some Odd Girl), showed how she colored "Ornament Tia" and made it look like the bulb was glowing and reflecting off of Tia. I was so amazed that I had to try it. It was actually a bit easier than I anticipated, but it did take about an hour to do. I knew I'd be using the Carta Bella "Merry & Bright" paper pad, so selecting what copic colors I'd use was simple. What became a "task" was figuring out the perfect layout for the card. A week ago I found that SOG posted a new sketch challenge on their blog, (LOVE THOSE!!), so I took a shot and came up with this card.
I fussy cut the sentiment out of the paper pad and added pop dots.
I happen to think it's super cute, especially with all the added Recollections bling.
