I decided to make the most of this theme and make a Christmas card
with a cute and cuddly James bear from LOTV
I decided to go a little bit on the vintage side with this one
I used the MME lost and found papers as my inspiration and coloured James to match!
Just a few embellies and die cuts to finish and it was quite a quick card to make really.
My go to bear copic colours
I used my black prismacolour pencil to tone the colours down - I always find this works well when trying for a vintage look - gives that dark worn out look - I wonder if someone's used that on me lately lol!!
Considering I was a bit lacking in inspiration when I started this one I was pleased with how it turned out
- its what I call a KISS card - when I have no direction go for a KISS!
To enlighten those not in the know - it's the idiots Cas card!!!
Keep It Simple Stupid!!
