Bismark

Hi All!  Hope you had a good weekend.  Weather here was gorgeous.  Temp's in the 50's and lots of sunshine.  I spent most of the weekend working on Christmas card orders - making headway so that is a good feeling.

Tonight I coloured up one of my favourite images - meet Bismark by Mo Manning available at Stamping Bella.

Bismark was stamped on Bella's bestest paper and coloured with prismacolour pencils and blended with gamsol.  Designer paper is from Cosmo Cricket - called Wonderland - I think it is about 3-4 years old!!

Finishing touches: glitter, flock (for hat) and a bow. Spellbinder die - large square. Finished card size 5 1/2 x 5 1/2.

Have you heard about the giveaway???? If not, you can read all about here over on Lindabella's blog.  Be sure to participate, you then have a chance to win $25 in Bella Bucks! You have until Friday, so what are you waiting for - hop on over!

Well, I'm out of here, need to colour up another image!

Stunning card Pauline! Bismark is such a cute image but your shading and color scheme tie together beautifully! Your eye sweeps from the scarf and hat to the matting and out to the design paper and then you come back with the green bows. Fantastic!

He is so cute, and after seeing a pic of your sisters dog, I really think you need to send this card to her!
