Today is "M" day and for me that means monochrome. I've used only black and white pencils on a piece of dark blue card stock to colour this Christmas bell. The sparkle is from a generous application of Wink of Stella... my favourite sparkly medium. "M" also means we're now halfway through the alphabet and halfway through our November Month of Holiday Cards Challenge. Can you believe it?!
YOUR TURN: Create a papercraft project using the letter "M" as your prompt.
