Hi there 🙂 I was thrilled to be asked to be a guest designer at Cheerful Sketches this month. One of their sponsors is The Paper Shelter, and I was given Mind If I Settle Here to work with. The sketch for this month is an awesome one, with so many possibilities!
I colored the image up with my Copics, and added some sparkly effects for the snow and added snowflakes. A bit of gold sparkle on the star, and some clear Nuvo on the tree ornaments gave a bit more dimension and interest.
For the layout, I stuck to the sketch as closely as possible. For the 3 back panels, I embossed some white paper with a snowflake folder, and matted everything with a pretty blue. The sentiment was die cut from a deep red paper and attached to a block of white. For a finishing touch, some dark red gems were added.
I’d like to thank the team at Cheerful Sketches again for inviting me to play with them!
