Purple Fairy Holly Gift Box

Hi all,

Welcome to our new Mad for Markers Challenge to Copic Colour an Untraditional Christmas Colour Creation!  Now try saying that aloud LOL!

Well Christmas wouldn't be Christmas in our house without a little bit of purple lol!  So I have used my favourate image from Mo Manning 'Fairy Holly' and decorated a gift box for Christmas.  Now I don't usually use a lot of glitter but the sun has not shone much over here and I think I got a little too carried away.  

Around the edge I have used my Tim Holtz on the edge snow flurries on glitter card then added a couple of glittered snowflakes (from my stash) with rhinestone brads coloured with V17.  Then added purple rhinestones for a snow falling effect. 

A side view to try and show the sparkly cardstock, spica pens used in hair, lips, snow globe and dress

The ribbon around the box

Just a reminder Sammi over at the Mad for Markers Store can cater for all your copic requirements, as well as markers, there are various sticky tapes, Xpress Blend It Paper, masking paper etc. and new to the store Flourish with bling embellishments.  Posting to New Zealand and Australia. .  Also check here each day for more wonderful inspiration from our new DT.  We so look forward to visiting your space in blog land to see your wonderful creations.

Copics

E00, E50, E51, E53, R20, V12, V15, V17, Y26 and 0.  Spica Pens, Clear (00), Lavender (01), Gold (11) and Blossom (14)

Candy Bon-Bon

Hello everyone!!
Linda here with my very first M4M blog post :)

I don't very often make 'off the page' items - But I saw this bon bon in the Christmas Edition of the Magnolia Ink Magazine, and I thought...wow...I can do this!!! So here is my inspiration for the current challenge of Anything but a Card.

It was really very quick to make as well. Just used a sheet of green bazzill cardstock, covered with Basic Grey christmas paper - add a few embellishments and fill with some lollies, and there you have a cute little gift :)

The copics I used to colour this cute Whimsy Stamp image are :
E33,E50,E53
R24, R29
R11,R20,R81
G21,G40,YG63
B00
E37

Thanks for stopping by

Linda
