This darling elf is an image from Beccy's Place and I love how proudly he's carrying those presents. The challenge for today is one of the themed challenges rather than an alphabetical one and Beccy chose "Tartans or Plaids." I immediately thought about this paper I knew was in my Christmas stash and chose the elf as the image I wanted on the card.
I printed the pre-colored version, adjusted it to almost grayscale before printing it, and then enhanced all the reds with one of my Sanjoki markers, chosen because it was an almost exact match to the red in the dp. The sentiment came from an old magazine. I cut it out with a Tonic Studios die, matted it with red CS, and layered it onto the image piece after I cut the image with a QuicKutz die. The three snowflakes are from Jolee's.

You've done a fabulous job with your card NanaConnie, the colours are wonderful. I love the tartan paper you chose... I don't think I've seen one printed with little snowflakes. Beautiful!
Cheers,
