(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/wd2_cpws/craftypaws.us/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114I am one of those crafters that embarrassingly sends out store bought Christmas cards. I don’t like making “mass produced” cards–I am too easily bored. That means each card is usually a new\u00a0endeavor, and therefore time consuming. \u00a0Anyway, I thought I would create a Christmas themed digi early enough in the year to actually (hopefully) be helpful to you all with YOUR\u00a0holiday card endeavors. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I drew this “Christmas Tree Kitty”<\/a><\/span> for all you cat lovers, but especially for the extremely talented Linda Lapotka (YT: Linda Lapotka), who starts and ends her YT videos with adorable pictures of her kitties and my crafty friend, Cindy (YT: cindy4kiddos), who has a cat who stays in her tree from the moment she puts it up in November. \u00a0I colored up the digi with the following Copic markers: Kitty: E11, E 15, and C1; Oval bulb: RV00, 02 and 04; Round bulb: B60, 63 and 66; Pine branches: YG 63, YG67 and G29; Strand of gold balls: Y35, and 38. The dark shadows I laid in with my Derwent Inktense water color pencil in ink black and a Pentel waterbrush. \u00a0To add sparkle to the bulbs, I added Wink of Stella, and to add glitter to the gold ball strand, I used a\u00a0clear star Gelly Roll pen.<\/p>\n This Christmas card is one that I made using non-traditional colors and an adorable paper from imaginisce called, “Gingerbread Village”. The front of the paper has those super cute elves\/gnomes and the back is pale green with small circles. I\u00a0have been wanting to use this sweet paper and make a “gnomey-homey” holiday card (LOL) for a while, and I thought this was the perfect opportunity. \u00a0Just to add a little decorative flourish, I tied a triple bow using green and white bakers twine and “dangled” a little gingerbread house that I fussy cut out of the paper and popped up on a double layer of foam adhesive.<\/p>\n This card is being entered into The Aviary Ribbon or Twine Challenge<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and
