Find the Joy

It was the second coldest place on earth in my neighbourhood 2 days ago.  I really don't know what I think about that dubious honour except that it made for a perfect time to hunker down, stay warm and make a Christmas card.  I have a little pile of Christmas stamps on my desk I am working through to make projects with.  For this project, I chose 'Find the Joy' by Itty Bitty Unity.  It's a darling stamp and the images co-ordinate so well with Basic Grey's new Christmas paper, Jovial


I have received requests to list the copics I use, so here goes; R59,43,46, G29, Y32, 35,38, YG93, 95, 97.  I'll try to remember taking a picture next time!



I sponged a little on the edges of the paper for a warm glow on the image because the white paper looked so stark on the muted colours of this paper from the Jovial pad. 

Black Friday Sale announcement for i {heart} papers tomorrow!!!  Stay warm and have some hot chocolate!

Beautiful coloring with those Copics. I love the warmth of the image and bg paper against the striking white mat and ribbon.
