Happy colouring til next time!

Santa by the Fireplace

Hi.
Helen here today.
I could colour Santas all year long so now I´m in heaven. I love the ones that are a bit quirky and not perfect. I found this one, Naught or Nice stamp set from Polka Doodles and I wanted to place him by the fireplace as I laid my eyes on him. Hope you´ll enjoy the video.

The colours I used are now included in the movie.

Until next time: Happy colouring!

Helen

Here you got some options.
Just leave it as it is.
Make a bright stary night sky.
Or...

Just cover the whole image with snow.
It´s perfect if there are parts in your colouring that didn´t end up as you wanted it. Just remember to break some lines, and in front of your subject. I usually don´t put snow in the face of my image.

I made some snow just because I love when it snows. Snow comes with peace as it never is otherwise.
I made the snow with a Gelly Roll Dark White pen. 

Hope Santa will pay you a visit before we´ll meet again.
I wish you all a Happy Colourful Christmas.

Love
Helen

Merry Christmas to you

November is a time when I do the most of my Christmas cards. 

I love Santa Clauses in all varieties.

Here I colored the one freebies like a girl in Sweden have designed. 

I have used quite a few colors, 

but still got several different colors depending on the light or dark pen I´ve used.

E81,84,87,89

There are many different pens with red, 

and this has become one of my favorites when I coloring the Santa Claus red.

E24, E27, E39, RV99

After I have colored the subjekt I have cut it out and placed it on a cusp of a star.

Here you will find the freebies:
