Christmas.... i bet that's the last thing on everyone's mind?

I have had a frenzy today on Christmas cards, as last night i read on Hazel's blog, not many have entered the current challenge 'Must include a building or part of one'. So i found all my building themed Christmas stuff and got cracking today around keeping my two boys entertained!

Card #1

I had made these peel off decoupage images already a while ago, so i thought it is a perfect chance to use them at last. The backing paper is from an old Papermania pack.

Somewhere over the rainbow.....

Today we have a new challenge over at Artistic Inspirations. The theme this week is influenced by a song.

I have been lucky enough to use the Dottie Dorothy Image from Bugaboo for my card, i have given it a Wizard of Oz theme.


I have tried to make a yellow brick road!!! i coloured her in using promarkers. The rainbow i painted with Marvy La plume watercolour pens, and the flowers are mostly Trimcraft and a few punched or die cut. The words are using Doodlebug rub-ons and i went over them with a white pen to try and give them a shadow.
