Inventory Challenge

Our Challenge this month was to do
a Christmas card.. I had a card in my
mind but it didn't seem to want to work
so this is what came out of it.. so far my mojo is not back but I am trying.  I did make little sitting Tilda with Santa hat on presents.. have her stocking on the wall...  on the bottom is Star of  Wonder...  On the side is a twig of pine and some roses beneath and red bow.. all on a beautiful "My Minds Eye" paper.   Not what I was striving for but what I got done...  Hope you enjoy I am trying and hoping to get my arm better.. It will take time and Oh I did use Copics and Souffle white for Tilda's

Add caption
hat fur.  Forgot and used it for her cheek color so it came out too big.. least you see it so big!!  Also used red stickles to outline the Nestlesbilities Tilda and Presents are on and used on presents and on Tilda... 

Thank you for looking and hope you will leave a message for me.. Do so enjoy reading them..

Hugs Jean

    Jean this entire card is so festive! What a neat idea to add the pine bough with the roses. Tilda never looked better than sitting on your wonderful, colorful parcels! Good job my friend...hugs...Barb

    She is certainly bright and cheery - probably expecting "good stuff" in those boxes, along with in her stocking, too! Looks like you were busy coloring, Jean. I give you credit for working up a Christmas card this time of year -- I'd much rather "think spring". Nice creation, Jean - thanks for sharing!
