I have two CDBC challenge cards to share with you today. Here is my first card for the challenge. I used the new DP "Sledding Ants" set. I really had fun coloring and embellishing this fun image. I trimmed the little hats and earmuffs with fun flock; made snow with a mix of flower soft and glitter; and, of course, I had to add some bling and a yummy bow!
My next card showcases the new Doodle Pantry set called "Holly and Juniper". I used the the Holly image and one of the sentiments from this set to make a vintage-style card. My holly image was colored with Copics. I created a background collage of vintage images torn from a sheet of designer series paper. The Santa image was punched from the same sheet of paper and popped up with dimensionals. Finishing touches include lace, ribbon and a button.
For more information regarding the challenge, and samples of all the new Doodle Pantry images released today, please check out Laurie's Clearly Delightful Blog challenge post HERE. Have a great holiday weekend and thanks for stopping by! Sure hope you join in the fun!!
