Jolly Holly Challenge

The theme for  Mari Ko Creations challenge this time is Jolly Holly which allows for anything Christmas related. I have used the optional challenge image for this one.

Materials used: 

Mari Ko Creations - Holiday Petals Unicorn
greetings light string acrylic stamp from stash
black archival ink
gel pens
Copic pens
white paint stick
snowflake stickers
First Editon Silent Night paper pad
X-Press It card
A5 card blank

The front of the card is covered with a piece of paper from the Silent Night pad so that the glittered tree is in the right place. The string of lights is stamped straight onto the card front and coloured with gel pens.

Holiday Petals is printed on X-Press It card, coloured with Copics and fussy cut then attached to the card with foam pads.

Finally the stickers are added to the light string.
I decided to make my unicorn brightly coloured against the muted background paper. The string of lights was an afterthought having found them in my stash when looking for a suitable greeting stamp. They mirror the lights around Petal's horn.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.
