So today is November 1st (already, my time flies) which means it's another Copic Creations Challenge!! This time we were challenged to color red/auburn hair on our images---easy peasy I say, hee hee! I pulled out one of CC Designs Swiss Pixies "Gretel" which I hadn't had a chance to ink up yet and made her a Christmas Pixie instead--she's super versatile which I love of course! Her hair color is actually a bundle of Copics I made for Susana's Store that you can buy HERE (E19,E18,E17,E13) and I added a little of YR23 for some golden touches.

I stamped some Christmas holly from a holiday Inkadinkado set so Gretel would have a place to sit--stamped the corners as well, and then added stickles to the leaves and red pearls (A2Z Scrapbooking has a fabulous selection of pearls HERE) to some of the berries. The dp is by Memory Box called "Spiceberry" and the sentiment is from the PTI set "Vintage Ornaments". And I was soooo excited to finally find the Martha Stewart holly punch--I double punched the holly from 2 colors of cs and then added more red pearls for the berries. A cute holiday card for my stash! Hope you like her too!

Now make sure & stop by the Copic Creations Challenge Blog HERE to see the rest of the DT's projects and to join in on the fun as well!

    I see that you are reading "The Help". I really enjoyed the book. It was difficult to believe that some of the things in the book could have gone on in my liftime.
