Xmas Manga in acetate

I bought 3 of the Xmas Manga stamps from Sugar Nellie when they were released - as soon as they arrived I had them inked up and stamped. I even got 2 of these "Baubles" coloured in, but that's as far as I got. I've been so busy over the last week with the kids and with Pepsi, and Graham being away. But now that he's home I got a wee bit of time to make a couple of cards. So I'll show you one today and one tomorrow.

 Image: Baubles from Sugar Nellie, coloured with promarkers: Poppy and Crimson for her dress, boots and baubles, Pine and Holly for her tights, sleeves and baubles, Blush for her skin, Caramel and Cocoa for her hair. Highlighted with sakura white med gel pen, and clear stardust pen accents on her dress and the bauble tops.

Matted onto green core'dinations card cut using oval scallop nesties in the cuttlebug, the card base is papermania acetate. I added a square of  silver mirri card behind the front, and a scallop circle journalling spot to the inside.
And finally I added papermania embellies to hide where I had glued the mirri card
Here's the close up...
