Season's Tweetings

 

It is the start of a new month and we have a new image to play with for 

The Outlawz Progressive Freebie Challenge

Our New Blog Home is now up and running and all the challenges are being hosted from there. There is a challenge for each day of the week and we have ones that last for a month at a time. Lots of prizes on offer with individual ones for the specific challenges and sitewide ones for each calendar month.

Come on over and join in the fun at The Outlawz

This month at the Progressive Freebie Challenge we have been given this great digital set Season's Tweetings from our sponsor Wink Wink Wink.

It is a huge kit which included the outline stamps in various format plus blue and green pre-coloured versions.

As I have recently had a new colour laser printer I took advantage of the pre-coloured images and printed the blue one. 

I covered a card base with a blue snowy sky paper and added a silver and blue frame rescued from a previously received Christmas card. I added some silver mirror card to the sentiment and some silver peel off lines to the outside edge of the image.

I embellished the image with a clear glitter pen on the carrot. The image has button eyes so I raided my buttons and found some small ones. They made the eyes looks blank so I used a white paint pen to colour the inside white. This looked terrible... I thought I had ruined my card to be honest. I added some pearl centres and this made a huge difference and gave the snowman almost a human expression. I call that a Happy Accident.

Finally, as it is Christmas and the perfect reason/excuse to add bling I added some small red gems to the holly berries and some strips of larger ones to the opposing corners.

The Progressive Freebie challenge is a great opportunity to use images from different artists who you may not have used before. It helps to take you out of your comfort zone and introduce you to different styles and I would highly recommend you take part.
