He's colored up with Copics and I added a little Liquid Applique for his hat pompom and some gold Stickles on his ornaments. I found that cool gold mesh in the Christmas ribbon at Michaels. I used a Memory Box die to cut five of the jingle bell dies and layered them up. Then I covered them in gold embossing powder. I stamped the sentiment in gold. Not sure if I like it or not...might have looked better embossed.
Anyway, we'd love to have you come and play along with the challenge. Linda has some wonderful Pinterest project pins to inspire you and you can always check in on Sunday and see what the DT has come up with.
