Day 1 - "A"

One of my favourite techniques is to take an image and add some doodling to make it suitable for a completely different occasion. I mostly do it for Christmas since there are so many simple items you can add, such as hats, lights or, in this case, baubles, which I added to the antlers of my animal image.


YOUR TURN: Create a card or papercraft project using the letter "A" as your prompt.

I got so excited when I saw the start of the Holiday Month Challenge that I started working on my "A" card and got it uploaded. Only just realised the prompt for the day hadn't been announced - fortunately it is the Letter A.

Fabulous card, great image and I love the added baubles. From the expression on the reindeer's face, it looks like he loves them too! xx

That's so cute, Beccy! Maybe I could try to add some doodling but it would probably look like a hot mess LOL! For now I will stick to your adorable images! I'm going to colour at least one of those new Christmas Kitties of yours for later this week! Very excited about this month of card making! Woot, woot!
