Take a Break

Hello Nomad friends.  I have a little inspiration for the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Anything Goes challenge. I was just looking through my stamps and spotted this fun Lost Coast Designs Do Not Disturb Gnome.   It made me think about how hard santa has worked and that he must be sleeping for a month!!!  I expect the elves are all at the beach partying!!   Elves never rest!   It's all the candy!!!!

For the backgound I stamped Lost Coast Designs Large Shrubbery twice with two shades of green ink and a slight vertical offset between the two impressions.  I smudged twisted citron distress ink on a scrap of torn white card and spritzed with some water.  The gnome was stamped, coloured and fussy cut.

 

Grab you stamps and join the Anything Goes challenge.  The challenges are now monthly so you have plenty of time to join the fun.  Don't forget to check the updated rules!!!!

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

What a fun image, he sure looks like he needed to rest maybe from working too hard or partying too much haha. Love how this turned out! Thanks so much for sharing at Allsorts challenge!

He does look very peaceful. You've created the perfect place for his rest with those beautiful background grasses. Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts.
