DP: A Very Marshmallow Christmas
To quote Snoopy, "It was a dark and dreary [day]" so I decided to make some inner happiness around here by getting my crafty on.
I've had this image sitting on my desk for a long time so I decided to dust it off a bit and get to work with the copics. It's the Doodle Pantry image "Cocoa Cup Ants." I'm not much of a hot chocolate drinker (coffee is what can normally be found in my cup) but I liked it because it reminds me of my youngest child. He feels that there should be a 70/30 ratio when making cocoa. 70% marshmallows (especially the multi-colored ones) and a very small 30% of the drink ... just enough to melt the sugary goodness of the marshmallows!
I'm using the colors suggested by the Color Throwdown . My pink isn't exactly fuchsia but ... it IS pink. I also used the sketch from Sketch Saturday. I loved it's angularity.

ReplyDeleteSuch a cute image - beautifully coloured! I have to say I rather like the idea of a 70/30 marshmallow/drink ratio too!!! Love your paper choices and the stitching on this pretty card too. We're delighted to see you enter our challenge at Sketch Saturday this week. Hugs, Lesley
