I have been creating some Christmas cards for an upcoming craft show display. I thought i would try my hand at colouring in sepia tones, i had ordered the colours i wanted to use but had to wait for them to come in. I used Copic markers in the E series 40 through to 49. I am really happy with the finished card.

Who would have thought that in short period of time i have owned my Copic Markers i would become so addicted to them and enjoy colouring in as much as I do.

Im not a lover of Mauve and Blue for Christmas, but was a bit over colouring Red and Green so thougth I would at least make one Christmas card in these tonings.This little Tilda is such a cute little lady and she fit perfectly on my Alota stamps Christmas Sleigh.

Tilda with Reindeer ears is probably my favourite Christmas stamp she is just so cute. This card is my favourite, It came together really easily, i think that the flower soft goes really well on the edge of my sleigh, it almost does look like snow.

My final card that i am sharing didnt come together as quickly as the other three, I wanted Santa to stand behind the sleigh and be leaning on it but it meant i had to make a really big card so i went back to the drawing board and coloured some more Christmas images. I did want to stack all the presents and baubles but again this didnt work for me so i ended up strategically placing the items on the page and this is what i came up with. I have used Flower Soft, white ultra fine glitter and puff paint to create a 3D effect on my images.

I am off to finish some more cards now, i will post these when i am done.
