Hi There ~ Pam here to share my project card using Dr. Digi's Three Wise Men.  I printed the image on Neenah 110# cardstock and used my Copic markers for coloring the Maji.  I used Gina Marie Designs Studded Square for the image edging and the Tim Holtz Festive Repeats for the diamond shaped cut outs down the left side.  I added several bronze diamond shaped charms and finished the card with a double looped organza bow.  This was a fun image to color and perfect for this season!

Two layers of an oriental city were punched out with a die and attached to the middle of the card.  The motif was coloured with Copics, cut out and placed in front of the city.

Helloooooo, it's Jackie here. I used the image Kawaii Christmas Baby Elephant w/ Antlers

Hi it’s Janine here. I really hope your Christmas preparations are going well. This month we are sponsored by Oddball Art Co. The image I close for this month is this cute little Elephant. The images is called Kawaii Christmas Baby Elephant with Antlers. I coloured him using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens. I have used America Craft Card paper for the background paper and also cut the snowflake backing from this/ Both the Red and Green are from their Christmas collection. I added some little gold gems from the Works to the headband. The sentiment has been foiled using my Scan and Cut machine. Isn’t he just a perfect Christmas Image and I am sure that this December will definitely be one to remember! Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas.

Hello. This is Kym here. For my Christmas easel card I have used the Oddball Art digital stamp called "Christmas Elf with Long Naughty List - Image No 353".  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers. I then printed out a copy of the image the same size onto copier paper and cut out the inside of the list to use as a mask. I then put the image with the mask on top into my Tim Holtz stamping platform and used a Morning Mist Versafine Clair ink pad and a distressed script stamp to add writing to the rather long list.  The backing papers I have used are from various Polkadoodles CDs and a Christmas Creative Crafting World CD. I have finished the card off quite simply with a sentiment and a pom-pom on the elf's hat.



Hello Its Louise here, For my Christmas card I am using the cute image from Oddball stamps 'kawaii Christmas Baby elephant with Antlers'. I have coloured the image using my Promarkers, layered it onto snowflake paper, and applied a tag. Then punched out a few snowflakes and added gems on top and on his antlers.

Christmas Elf with Long Naughty List.  I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, cut the red mat and focal panel with Stitched Rectangle dies and added bits and bobs for additional interest.  I checked her Naughty List to see if the Team from Colour Crazy Challenges were listed there and much to my surprise, we are not!  Whew!  *wink

Ruth:  I've used this cute Snowmen and Dog digi.  Coloured with Promarkers plus added glitter to the fur bits on the bobble hats.  Papers are from my stash - stuff I've had for such a long time and are trying to use up!  Computer generated sentiment and layered die cut snowflakes with everything else from my stash. 


Hello .. It's Billie A   I am here with my card from Polkadoodles using the cute image called Winnie Winterland Candy cane Elf   I colored her with copics. I added some Spectrum Noir sparkle brush to a few parts of the image. I backed her to some card stock then to a piece of Christmas designer paper. I heat embossed the Paper Trey Ink sentiment. 


Hi there, Margo here and today I have made a card with Octavia Moonfly Rose Garden from our fabulous sponsor Polkadoodles.  I have coloured her with my copic markers and had so much fun creating a background too.



Hello, This is Maryann Guest designer, with a Christmas ornement card.  I chose the image "Feeding the Birds - Winnie White Christmas" from our wonderful sponsor Polkadoodles. I colored it with my Prismacolor Faber Castell. Do not hesitate to visit my blog for more details.



Hello this is Elizabeth at Warm Harted. While this is not normally my team I had to play along since I adored this Cute Baby Penguin from our sponsor Polkadoodles. If you like cute penguins they have lots of them. For my card I stayed with traditional Christmas colors. I used copics to color the penguin and added glitter. I had berry brads that I used and a ribbon.




Hello friends, and Happy Holidays! Marie here with my card for this week using the adorable Cute Snowmen and Dog image from our awesome sponsor Polkadoodles!  When Ruth asked us to request an image, there was no way I could resist this one!  :)  I colored these cuties with alcohol markers.  Please come visit my blog for even more details on my card! 



Hello! Kathy here sharing an easel card that features a wonderful image from Polkadoodles named Feeding the Birds.  I used a technique called Spotlighting to focus attention on sweet Winnie, then added additional color and texture with ribbon, photo corners and a sweet little gingerbread cookie tag, fussy-cut from patterned paper. Yummy!


I had so much fun creating the first card, that I asked to create a second card with a Polkadoodles digi. This time, my card features the digi named Tweet Sounds Winnie Angel. I used scraps of patterned paper, plus a strip of the Christmas music “Angels We Have Heard on High” from a tattered choral hymnbook that belonged to my hubby’s grandmother. I know that my sister-in-law who sang in her grandma’s church choir will cherish this card!


Hi Dawn here with my Polkadoodles project, Winner Winterland - Candy Cane Elf, I love how she turned out! Originally I coloured her, added clouds and the image was the whole card, but something was missing. So I trimmed the image and added the striped background and snowflakes, much more vibrant.
 

Hello - it's Helen here with my card for this week's challenge.  I've used one of the images from the 2 Cute Christmas Penguins set available here.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and then added one of my scrappy backgrounds - I'm on a mission to use up my paper scraps!
