Eskimo Kisses

I adore this Mo Manning digital stamp! I was looking through my digi files yesterday and decided to print and color one. I always print an extra when using digi stamps so when I mess up I have a back up. No challenges were involved in the making of this card. lol


However....I decided to see if I could do something completely different with my spare image. My bright red and orange Copics were still hanging out on my work space from an earlier challenge, so I grabbed them and started coloring. To make it even less traditional, I made a Christmas card with the finished image. Love how it came out! So my thanks must be given to Chrissie and Mandi over at Less Is More for the red and orange challenge. This might have been one of my favorite challenges ever!

You should hop on over to Less Is More and see all the FABULOUS cards that have been created with this combo!!

  5. I would NEVER have coloured this Mo image in the red/orange combo but it's stunning - I have this image sat on my desk waiting to be coloured so thank you for the inspiration!

  7. How gorgeous is that image in red & orange, you wouldn't think that these colours would work for Christmas, but this so does. I have also got this image and have to agree with Viv, think there are going to be a few red and orange eskimos out there this christmas hehe :)

  15. I have always loved this image, don't know why I have added it to my growing collection, think it's about time that I did... you've colored it to perfection. So glad that you reposted it so that I got to see it. Thanks for joining in on the fun at Mo's this week for our favorite project of 2011. Happy New Year
    Hugs
