Because I have seen Crissy's pre-coloured version of that image I was WAY too intimidated to approach it with my Copics so I used Prismacolor pencils on kraft card. Yes, I am obsessed, thanks for that knowing snigger! :p I got the legs a bit wrong but I like the way the face turned out.
The papers are from Whimsy as well, all dabbed with crackle paint on edges and glittery texture paint on poinsettias.
The snowflake is a die called Winter's Jewel, I just cut the one adorning the sentiment smaller. The sentiment itself is just computer-generated one.
The velvet brads are from Making Memories and the cute winter berries and dollar plant leaves I got from my wonderful friend Tara!

I think the legs look great! Very realistic.
ReplyDeleteThe more I work with Kraft the more I love it. I'm glad I have a Kraft partner now. :-)
OMG, how gorgeous is this card !!!! LOVE IT. Amazing coloring Annika, you truly are an amazing talent. I never stamped on craft paper before but after seeing your card I am most definately going to try it out.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Oh, lovely card that is has a very beautiful picture. Thank you for participating in The Crazy Challenge # 44. Hugs
ReplyDeleteAwesome Annika!! I just love this look of stamping and colouring on kraft card - you make it look so easy :o) - and no... its not wrong to like your own card - you should it's beautiful!!! xx Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteIf I made cards like you...umm...YES, I would like them too!! :) This is gorgeous and I love your coloring on the kraft cardstock!! So different from the norm and your details always rock!! So yes....like away!! :) HUGS
ReplyDeleteExcellent! I like the Prismacolor pencils on kraft card in your
ReplyDeleteperformance. very interesting idea.
Of course it's ok to like your own card... heck, if we didn't like our own cards, why would we bother to make more! I think this card is magnificent & there is some seriously talented colouring going on here. The way you've shaded the deer is nothing short of amazing - do you paint? If you don't, you should because this is art. Even the way you've shaded & highlighted the blanket is perfect & the ribbon is too. The antlers are something else.. the way you've added the dark & light makes them look just like they would up close. Good job!
ReplyDeleteNot wrong at all!!! In your case I can't see how you could not be in love with ALL your creations...I know I am!! FAB work *as always!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right to like your own card because it is absolutely stunning. I must try using my Prismacolors on kraft card stock and see if I produce anything even close to as gorgeous. I love all the wonderful distressing in white. The snowflakes, berries and dollar plant leaves are such special additions. Lucky person who gets this work of art.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
Cec
ohh sure you must like this card :)
ReplyDeleteSensational. It's so gorgeous on craft paper with prismacolor pencils.
The paper is just amazing.
If I was you, I would definitely like my own card, but unfortunately I didn't make this one so, as a consequence I like YOUR card (am I still making sense? LOL). No seriously, I really like this one!! Love the cardboard you set behind the image, and I like that colouring on craft paper, you did that once before and it struck me then what a great effect that gives. You go girl!! XOXOXO Frea
ReplyDeleteI'm drooling over your Prisma colouring on Kraft girl! My crystal ball tells me there's a tute in the future, right ~ pretty please with a cherry on top. Fantastically fabulous!! Hugs, Maria
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous card.. How could you not be in love with it.. You are so talented.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Linda
