Merry and Bright


Crafty Hazelnut's challenge to us this week was "Merry and bright." I knew right away I wanted to use this tiny strand of faux lights that I have had for eons.  It also fit into the Sketch Saturday layout I was using, subbing in for that half-oval.
The image is a Pure Innocence digi colored with pencils.  The ornaments are decorated with gold Stickles and a Spica pen, and in real life they have a nice glitter to them.  The sentiment (Stampin Up) is embossed with a white glittery EP (the color is Winter Wonderland).

  7. This is so sweet! I don't think I'd have been able to part with those lights - my stash is full of things that I can't use because if I use them, I won't have them any more....
