Christmas Fairy Celandine

Hi there!  Happy Tuesday!  Hope your week is going OK so far.  What a nasty day it was here!  It was very windy, rainy and the temps were only in the low 40s!   I sure would have stayed in all day if it weren't for an appointment with my surgeon.  He says I am doing well, but still have to use caution with lifting and bending and I am still supposed to limit my sitting and standing to short periods with rest in between.  This doesn't leave me much to do, does it?  I am not a patient person, but I am going to do what he says and hope that my recovery will go quicker that way.  Anyway, enough about me.  I am here with a quick post to share the card I made for the Make it Colourful Challenge #3 which was focused on skin definition.  The easy challenge was just to use skin colors you don't ordinarily use and the hard challenge was to show muscle definition with your coloring.  I decided to combine them into one image.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Cherry Cobbler and the patterned paper is from the Authentique Festive 6x6 pad.  The image is Fairy Celandine from Make it Crafty.  I used the rubber stamp, but the digi is available in the MiC store.  I stamped her on MiC Blending Card and colored her in Christmas colors with my Copics.  I used a new, darker color combo for the skin and I added muscle definition. The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  A couple of 3-D poinsettias stickers and a few pearls from my stash were my only embellishments since I was mainly focused on the colored image.

Here is a close-up of the image:

That's it for now!  Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great evening and see you soon!
