Ok. So now I see. Instead of Rudolph guiding Santa to deliver the presents, down under they are delivered by a Red Nose Kangaroo with a Big Pouch !

Day 24 - "U"

Ultramarine is a beautiful blue that works well for wintery scenes. I've used an ultramarine marker to colour my little snowman as well as the very back "hill" in my landscape. Happily, I also had some glittery cardstock in the same colour.

In Dutch there is an expression "Blauw van de kou" - That is exactly the first thing that came into my mind when I saw this card. These two adorable snowmen must have cold and thus they are snuggling close together. Beautiful card!

A touch of tartan is always welcome at Christmas, especially when it's red, white, and green... perfect for a candy-cane-carrying kangaroo with a festive attitude and a shiny red nose!

That Rudolph is too funny with his big smile (I'm sitting here with a big smile too). I think many dentists will take care for his teeth. Love to see the process of adding and colouring the lights.

Day 21 - CASE Yourself

I've chosen to CASE one of the cards I made earlier in the month using a technique I really love, which is basically working on a black background. For today's card I've chosen a waratah image, which is one of Australia's native flowers, as opposed to the holly sprig I used a couple of weeks ago.
