Belle Papier {pretty paper}

I don’t know what it is about these whimsical images but I have so much fun coloring them! Bright colors, the fun detail…it all makes it a great change of pace whenever I just want to do something different. When I saw this Christmas Mushroom Lane stamp image, I just knew I had to order i. Is that tree not cute? And the little snowman?!
Mushroom Lane Christmas

To color this image, I used my Copic Markers and my Copic Spica pens to add some glitter.

While it doesn’t show up in my first photo, you can catch a glimpse of the sparkle on the tree balls. Sigh…I wish I could get a good photo of the sparkle as it is on the snow, the windows, the bows etc. I paired up the image with some fun Fancy Pants Designs patterned paper and played up on the pink and red combo for a fun look. My favorite detail is the little jingle bells tied to the gingham ribbon.

Quick Tip: For large images such as this, use a 5.25″ square card base to allow for room to embellish your design.

Wishing you a great start to your week! Have fun getting ready for the holidays!
