HCW2014-Bonus Day-Coloring!

If my fellow 'classmates' in the Holiday Card Workshop 2014 are having as much fun as i am- i'm sure they were doing the happy dance with me when we got a surprise bonus day of class material!! WooHoo!! & it was an over the top, rockin' cool bonus day too-with jaw droppng prismacolor pencil coloring by Debby Hughes, incredible 'shiny' golden Copic marker lesson with Sandy Allnock & way cool out of the box bright color blending ideas by Kathy Racoosin! i've never colored stamped images with my Prismacolor pencils so I got them out & ending up having a ball! The pencils are so soft, creamy & blend-able- a totally different look vs copic markers- LOVE!! Here's a closer look:

i really like how these turned out- you should totally try prismacolor pencils to color up some images!

HCW2014-Shaker Tag

Here's a simple yet so pretty (i think) holiday tag that i learned on day 5 of the awesome holiday card workshop 2014! i was totally inspired by all of Yana Smakula's gorgeous tags (& all the class instructors projects!)- so i followed her directions & made a snowflake shaker tag! so simple & sweet & just makes me smile! (sorry for my phone reflection in the acetate- lol)
