Christmas Candle by Pickled Potpourri

Christmas Candle is a nice collage image from Pickled Potpourri.  It almost makes a complete card on its own.  I colored by image with Copic markers (R24, R59, Y38, YR04, Y26, Y28, YG63, YG67) and then used chalks for the background.  On the flame I used Yellow Wink of Stella to make it glisten.   Crystal Effects were applied to the dripping part of the candle.  The background patterned paper is from my stash of paper, and I used Bazzill Ivy cardstock to mat it.  A rick rack ribbon trim across top and bottom was added also.

Beehive by Pickled Potpourri

Beehive by Pickled Potpourri makes a happy card for almost any occasion. The background of my card is an embossing folder by Darice called Bees Buzzing.  I chalked over it to make the bees visible.  The beehive image is printed on white cardstock and colored with Copic markers.  Then I cut it with Spellbinders Big Scalloped Ovals Nestabilities and mounted it on yellow cardstock.  Buttons with floss were added for accent.

Snowman Tags by Pickled Potpourri

 

More Christmas ideas this week with Snowman Tags from Pickled Potpourri.  I've made a card and a tag, colored them with Copic markers and mounted them on green cardstock.  The background of the card is a snowflake embossing folder, and I used White Liquid Applique on the snow.  Stickles were used on the snowflakes to make them sparkle.  I tied a ribbon and bow under the main image. 

 

On the tag I added hardware from Lilly Anna by Red Rubber Designs and ribbon.
