Are you sick of my Christmas cards yet???


This image is from Squigglefly and called "Santa's Mailbox". It is so cute!!! I was over at Crissy's blog and seen this on Friday or Saturday and just had to have it!!! I had to wait until the next morning to go and buy it because it wasn't released yet!! She is such a tease!! Shame on you Chrissy!! LOL... This is a download on Squigglefly.

I have painted this one with just my copic markers and I just don't like them without using them with my watercolor pencils. So back to painting with both or me. I am just so much more comfy and paint them so much faster and I think I do a better job with both mixed. :o)
I have used the sketch over at SKETCH SATURDAY... I love the sketches over there........today I struggled with this one because this image is really big for this sketch but did the best I could with it. And I think it came out fine...........

Thanks for stopping by and seeing my little piece of art today...
hugs, janny

OH what a gorgeous Christmas card, Janny:O) I have to admit I have only made one yet:OI Hope to get started soon.
I love the adorable Santa, and your colouring is fabulous. The DP's are wonderful, and the bow with the cute button is a brilliant touch.
Have a wonderful week.

oh I think your card is just the best! That's one good thing about digitals - if your image is too big for a sketch just re-size it!
