Christmas Coo


It's time for Christmas in July for the new challenge at the Crafty Catz

Our sponsor is Di's Digi Stamps
and this is one of their images called Highland Christmas.



I've coloured this lovely Christmas Coo with alcohol pens. The top part of the background is a stencil and the bottom part is a stamp both from Sweet Poppy Stencils. With just a narrow ribbon on the join. I have used a textured paste to look lick fur on the hat brim and bobble. 

I would like to enter this in the following challenges
Double Trouble - Christmas in July
Craft Rocket - Christmas in July
Creative Knockouts - Christmas in July
Double D - Christmas in July
Simon says Stamp - 4 Legged friends
Crazy is our Fame - ATG stencil
