Merry Mona

Hello Nomad friends.  We are going Face On this fortnight at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity with makes that feature a human face.  You can join the fun until 31st August 23.59 PST so grab your people stamps and link up.  Here's Mona, all ready for her Merry Christmas!


Using black archival ink I stamped Lost Coast Designs Santa Mona, masked her and stamped Lost Coast Designs Bubbles Background.  Inspired by the photo challenge at Christmas Kickstart I decided to leave lots of white and add some pops of colour.  I used red, green and yellow Promarkers to randomly colour clusters of bubbles and Mona's hat and dress.  Then I added glitter glue to the hat rim and pom pom.   To finish I stamped Lost Coast Designs Merry Christmas with green ink, edged the sentiment strip with green ink and added a couple of yellow enamel dots.
 

Grab you stamps and join the fun
Include a human face or two for a chance to win.
See you there!!!!

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

What a fabulous, artsy design and I love the masking technique you used so well to add the background. Such an original idea for a festive card.

Thanks for sharing with us at ABC Christmas Challenges.
