High Hopes challenge #49!

Good Sunday morning to ya!! I can't believe I'm up so early considering I actually went out last night!! My mom & I went to a benefit for our local Humane Society. So much fun!! We went 2 years ago too & had a blast, too. They always have the best food & the BEST entertainment!! It's been a long time since I had a night out so I'm glad I could go!!

Today's High Hopes challenge is hosted by Nikki, & she wants us to make a Christmas card using non-traditional colors. I don't know how non-traditional mine is, since I did use red, but paired with blue I thought it was a bit different.



I used Snow Family from the last release in July.....& colored it with Copics. I am slowly building quite a collection of these, so I am forcing myself to use them more!! Of course, I cheat & use them to color images such as snowmen....where there's not too much coloring involved :) The papers are SU's Riding Hood Red & Provocraft (a HUGE holiday pack I got on clearance a few years ago).....& the sentiment is from Inky Antics, which was cut out with a blossom Nestie. I added some poinsettias, some Dew Drops, some swirls & a snowflake charm (bought on Ebay, of course....it's where I buy ALL my charms!). I added Liquid Applique & glitter to the "snow" on the ground....& added some glitter to their hats.




Aren't they the cutest little family??
