House Mouse Challenge #59 "Winter Wishes"


I am thoroughly enjoying my work for the HMCDT! This precious image is a new fav of mine. I colored the image with Copics then wanted a more "wintery" feel so I splattered it with white ink (calligraphy ink actually). I even decorated my keyboard...lol oh well. I added some tiny pearls (from Bunny Zoe's). The glow of the candle is from a few shades of yellow chalk. I used trim from Hobby Lobby's lace selection (by the yard stuff) for the frame. The bow is some old Stampin Up ribbon that was my most favorite! They got rid of it and I'm still sad! I left my ribbon tails long and used dots to stick the ribbon to the card here and there. I hope you enjoy my wintery card! Have a wonderful holiday and I look forward to seeing your creations for this challenge! The HMC Blog can be found here to play along.
