Hi all, What a morning I've had! Constant running here and there and having to leave things unfinished and come back to it a ca-zillion times!! Today is supposed to be MY day for doing design work NOT chores! Heehee, I guess that is just to be expected, it almost always happens!
So anyway, I found this cute little guy on Pinterest and printed him out (I'm really sorry I don't know whose he is). I used Stickles and Glossy Accents on the eyeballs, Liquid Applique on the hat, and did an out of the box die cutting technique for my branches.
I found the little wooden candy cane in my stash and put pearls on my snowflake border. I colored with Copic Markers and sponged the sky with Brilliance Sky Blue.
Thanks for looking!

Super cute cross-eyed fella. Love the humor. Takes the edge off being late; I need to try that! Great colors. Love the striped paper and the die-cuts. Very nicely done. I know how it feels to have 'design time' taken up! Sorry. TFS

I LOVE her images and you did a fabulous job of him! This is Karin Kajsan but don't hold me to the spelling (grin.) Love the way you colored the branch too. This is a fun one, Robin!

Well, looking at this fabulous card I would never know you have had the crazy day you have had. You truly know how to focus when you are working on your craft. This image is so darned cute (I especially love the Santa hat!) and the sentiment is absolutely fantastic. I love the red dsp and the red bow you used too! Someone will be pleased as punch to receive this wonderful birthday card! ~Karen.
