Hello, friends! It's time for a new Color Challenge at Splitcoaststampers! Jeanne is hosting this week and has chosen the lovely combination of Blueberry Bushel, Lipstick Red and Coastal Cabana with a dessert option of a nautical theme. I just could not get my mojo going for anything nautical so I opted to skip dessert and make a Christmas card, since I am soooo far behind in my production due to our move. I found one of Suzy's Watercolor prints that I thought was super cute and worked great with these colors.
Wouldn't you love to be a kid and find this wonderful surprise gift of a puppy in your Christmas stocking? I used Copic markers in colors similar to those for the challenge to color this print, adding neutrals including one like Mossy Meadow, which is a SU defined neutral. When the coloring was complete, I used some gold watercolor paint on the stocking buckle and also the ornaments. When the paint was dry, the panel was trimmed down then I used my paintbrush along the edges to add more gold for a nice finishing touch.
