Christmas Gnomies!

 Is it too early for Christmas?  Not according to any store you walk into today or last month so I'm up on the blog with a Gnome Christmas card I made for the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Blog CHALLENGE  This is for Challenge #191, Gnome-Vember (that's cute right? Because you have to use Gnomes on your card...get it😂😂)

Anyhoo, I have had this rubber slim cling stamp in my stash for about 2 years now and it's never been opened!  I love gnomes but I don't do many slim line cards so there it sat but when I came across this Hop I knew I had to use it!

The stamp is from STAMPENDOUS! and called SLIM WINTER GNOMES.  I do love their stamps, they are so crisp when you stamp them!

I stamped the image on 110lb white card stock and used Versa Fine Clair ink in nocturnal and then colored them in using mostly Spectrum Noir alcohol markers with a couple of Copic markers thrown in for good measure...only because I started off with Spectrum markers when I first started using alcohol markers before discovering Copic and I'm trying to get my marker stash built up so I only have a couple. 

After coloring all the gnomes, I added some sparkle with a glitter pen on the snow flakes and the brim of the hats and the snow and then added the chip board sentiments from the 49 and Market Christmas collection I have.

I backed it on a red color textured card stock and green color textured card stock and I called it done!

I just discovered this group so it is the first time joining in on a hop.  Here is a link if you want to check them out and join in...I mean WHO doesn't LOVE GNOMES!!!

Thanks for stopping by,
