Here is one of the inspiration photos for the challenge:
Here is my card:
I used the colors to create another Christmas card. I started with a card base of GKD Good As Gold and layered with shiny gold patterned paper from the Kaisercraft December 25th pad. My gorgeous image is from Mo Manning called In The Manger. You can find it in Mo's store here. I love the precious face on the angel - just so beautiful! I printed it on Cryogen White and colored with the following Copics:
Skin: E000, E00, E11
Hair: E97, Y11, Y21
Manger: E44, E43, E442, E41, E40, Y28
Straw: YR24, YR23, YR21, YR20, Y28
Wings: YR30
Blanket E53, E51, E50
I matted the image on a circle cut from gold mirror cardstock with a Spellbinders Lacey Circles die. The sentiment is from Flourishes The First Noel set. It is stamped with Versamark and embossed with gold detail embossing powder. It is also matted with gold mirror CS. I didn't add any other embellishments because I wanted the image and sentiment to take center stage.
Many thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
Absolutely stunning!! The image definitely takes center stage :)
