ANYTHING GOES WITH AN (OPTIONAL) CHRISTMAS TWIST

Today's challenge at THE OUTLAWZ Copics and other alcohol markers group is really, really easy!!!

ANYTHING GOES

(with an optional Christmas twist)

...but remember - you must use Copics or another brand of alcohol markers as your colouring medium.

Here is my inspiration for you:

My card features a Ricvk St Dennis image called Esmeralda 2 - Jaleo, available in the Rick St Dennis Etsy store here.  She is just lovely to colour as there is lots of detail and texture, and so much scope for different colour palettes!  Here is a view of the image up close:

I added details with a white gel pen.

To make up my card I used the following from my stash:

white CS card base

deep red CS background

deep turquoise CS background

white/lilac glittered DP

deep red CS card mat

lilac CS card mat

I sewed on sequins beads in hand-drawn swirl shapes and hand beaded an offcut of gold trim :

the layered silk and paper flowers have fancy flat back pearl centres that have been Copics coloured to match the flowers:

(the pearls and paper flowers are available from BLUEBERRY BEAR)

The challenge is  great opportunity to get a head start on those Christmas cards, but if you feel my is too soon to start, please join us and enter your ANYTHING GOES project!
