Christmas Cottage.

Good morning and happy Thursday!! Woot!! I'm working today and then working from home tomorrow. It is so nice to get out of bed and not have to get dressed and rush out the door to get to work one day a week.. work in your pajamas! :D  Today I'll finish up all I've been trying to get done this week. I'm hoping I can finish the majority of it. It has been a busy, long week! I'm really ready for the weekend! We were supposed to go to a Bariatric Support Group Meeting last night, but since there was a bomb threat at the hospital I thought it would be best just to skip that one. We will go to the one next Thursday. Hope you all have a great day today!!

Here is my share today:








This image is an image from Digital Delights by Looby Loo. It was all colored with my pencils.. I can't remember if I used the Prismacolor or the Faber-Castell Polychromos. Then it was layered a bit. This was another card cut with the Silhouette Cameo. I loved the swirls and flakes on the bottom of the white and I covered those with some white glitter to add some sparkle. I used Diamond Glaze on the Christmas Lights to give them shine. I used some Snow Marker for all the snow on the ground, the trees and the roof to add that wonderful texture. There is a large gem in the middle of the largest snowflake cut. I took the negative cut from the Season's Greetings tag and added that to the inside.
