Loads of Wishes!

Hi High Hope Fans & Friends!!
Today I am sharing a bit of a different project. I usually make cards but this time I used the High Hopes image "Old Pick Up Truck" and "Presents" to make a cute display piece for my Christmas theme this year.
The background paper is from my Stash. To add the presents into the back of the truck, I stamped a second image onto a piece of post it note. Then I played that image over top my Truck and stamped the presents on top. This technique is called masking, and makes the present appear if they are part of the original stamped image. I added the High Hopes "Lg Snowy Pine" that I coloured and decorated with some Stampendous Spoonful of Snow embossing glitter. In the opposite corner, some Holiday Lights cut with a YNS die balance things off. The Crystal Stickles make then sparkle!

This project will look so cute with my red, silver and black theme this year!
Copics Used:
Reds: R32, R35, R37, R39
Black/ Grey: W1, W3, W5, W7, W9
Greens: YG61, YG63, YG67
Gold Wink of Stella

Warmest Holiday Wishes

Hi Ai Fans!
Here's an Oldie but goodie from Art Impressions. It's the "Giant Snowman" (Item#1138) and He is absolutely adorable!
I decided to use some of the papers from the Doodlebug "Here Comes Santa Claus" 6x6 collection! I made some snowbanks using a Stitched Snowdrift die from MFT and tucked the "Giant Snowman" into them. I added some Crystal Stickles to the hat band and mittens for some added interest. 
I just love this snowman so of course I had to make a few of them LOL. The sentiment is from the Ai "Southwest Christmas" set.
Here's the inside with the sentiment "Bright with Joy" (I think it's retired).
Copics Used:
Snowman: C00, C1, R00, YR04, YR09, E43, E47
Pinks: R10, R11, R13, R15
Reds: R24, R27, R29
Hat: C3, C5, C7
Holly: R24, YG63

Thank You!

Howdy!
It's time for a new Challenge over at Tiddly Inks and the Theme this time is "Thank You". When I saw this digital stamp called "Inking of You", I knew I wanted to use her for this Challenge! I just love her using the ink and fountain pen set and I see her as writing the "Thank you"!
I love the fun and bright colours from the Bo Bunny "Believe" 6x6 collection. I found the little ink bottle in the Silhouette Store and thought it was perfect for a little embellishment! I love that the bright fun colours of the enamel dots look like ink splatters!
The lacey square and ink bottle are popped up with foam squares for added dimension.
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, E21, R20
Hair & boots: B41, C5, C7, C9
Outfit: RV04, RV06, R09, YG23
