Christmas Fun - Cute

Over a the Christmas Fun Challenge Blog the theme is Cute, i struggle with cute but had a play and this is what i came up with.

P1060023

P1060025

P1060024

Used Pan Pastels Red, Permanent Dark Red and Red Oxide for the background stripes, fixed with hairspray and then added a layer of Copper Pan Pastel.

Used some stamps from stash for the borders, Jane Nesterenko Glad Tidings Mouse stamp set and Daisy and Dandelion Santa’s Little Helpers for the main image and the inner.

The mouse, robin and angel are coloured with my new Kaiserfusion Pens, enjoyed using them as they blend really well, much easier imho than Promarkers.

Mounted the mouse onto a Bazzill Basic round shape which was coloured with  Red Tomato Kaiserfusion Pen. Used the Colall Tacky Glue to adhere everything on the card, first time have tried and it is very good.

P1060027

Stamped the angel onto white card and placed her on the inside of the card, stamped some of the tiny snowflakes from the Mouse stamp set. Added Stickles Glitter Glue onto all the centres of the snowflakes.

 

May i welcome my new followers, Hello hope you enjoy looking around.

    Hi and how's the shingles etc? Do hope you're feeling a bit better. I struggle with cute too! I reckon you nailed it with that cat! Cats in clothes are just the best kind of cute! I love your colour choices on both cards too. Get well soon. Julie Ann xxx

    Love those rich red stripes (you won't be surprised to learn that I haven't yet got any red PPs!!)... and the little mouse is sweet without being icky - so I think you cracked the "cute" challenge!

      I can understand why! Forced myself to get the bright red but wanted the Red Oxide shades as they look like rust & very warm browns. With Copper & Bronze Metallic Pan Pastels they look amazing.

      Thank you for the follow:-) xxx

    Hello there MOH, lovely to see you over on my blog, thank you for your lovely comments too. I really like your card, it's not soppy at all, pan pastels are a soft form of colouring, you seem to have the hang of them already :D
    Cute can be a real challenge if you're not feeling the vibes LOL I do hope you feel better soon, worry not about commenting, just happy to see you enjoying your crafting. What a lovely lot of stash you bought on your last post, inspiring to get new stuff :D Hope you have loads of fun with it all, Hugs Gay xx
