Christmas wishes with Winnie...

Hello my fabulous friends!

I've been a fan of Winnie stamps from Polkadoodles since I was first introduced to them.. When Nikky sent me a bunch of the new winter stamps to cheer me up, I quickly fell in love! I mean, how can  I not smile when I see sweet stamps like this!

This DARLING image was SO fun to color! I'll admit it was a bit overwhelming when I first started...  I love coloring Polkadoodles images with my Copics and solid black lines, but I really wanted to do no-line watercolor...

 There were so many lines and details, that I could barely see because of the Fadeout ink, it was intimidating!

But, I forced myself to tackle it, one character at a time... Breaking it down helped keep it manageable. 

After coloring, the card came together quickly... I found a fancy square die to cut out the image, then layered some beautiful Polkadoodles paper underneath.. To finish it off, I added a sentiment from the Polkadoodles Jumbles... I normally don't use printed embellishments, but honestly, since I have a bunch of Christmas cards to get done, it was nice to have a perfect, ready to go sentiment!

See you soon!
