Friends Forever

This card is for a good friend who is a horse lover.  I managed to get her hair the same color as hers but wasn't quite comfortable enough with my coloring skills to make the horse look like her horse with the white in the middle of the face.  It is colored with Copics and it's my first time coloring black hair.  Unfortunately, I only had half the shades of black and gray that the YouTube video said I should use but somehow I managed - there is always the next time, right?  The image is by Delicious Doodles and the sentiment is by Netty's Cards.  I used the sketch offered in The Sweet Stop's Challenge this week.

Peaceful Holiday

Last year I ran out of Christmas cards and had to make a "quickie" at the last minute.  Below is the white card that I threw together using a Delicious Doodles digi and cased from someone on SCS, but I don't remember who.  I liked it so much that I decided to make some more and change it up a bit.  I used Marina Mist cardstock and Fiskars, Heidi Grace Frost Blvd DP.  I used watercolor pencil in blue to highlight parts of the image and covered it using Tacky Powder and glitter from my stash.  The ornament is SU punch and various snowflake stamps which I embossed with White Jewels after embossing the Peace in silver.  On to the next one!
