Just perfect for Christmas and winter cards.
I have added some fine glitter to mine for the snow on the branches.

Shades Of Blue first for Brown Sugar

Good morning everyone and welcome to my new followers *waves*
Here is my DT card for the Brown Sugar Challenge blog and the theme this time is Shades of blue and we have two sponsors this time round and they are Delicious Doodles and Sassy Studio Designs
They both have some amazing stamps so do pop on over and take a look.

I have created ATC's for this challenge and am becoming quite addicted to them.
For my first one I have used Steampunk Mermaid by Delicious Doodles
I created 2 of the mermaids so I could paper piece them.
I have used blue and aqua pencils to colour the sea and the mermaids skin.
Grey and black for the rock and black and blue for her hair.
The sand back ground I used some sandpaper borrowed from the hubsters tool box lol
I then used a sentiment that came free on a magazine.

Shades of blue 2nd for Brown Sugar

My second ATC is using Cinderella Pinup from the Make A Wish Collection by Sassy Studio Designs
I printed off 3 images and shaded using colour pencils then paper pieced using foam pads for dimension.
Matted holographic card and a pretty blue designer paper from a Posy paper pack.
Punched flowers and a butterfly from the same paper and added some 4mm blue pearls.
Didn't have a stamp for the sentiment so added it using a black fine liner pencil.
