It's the start of a new challenge today on the Lili of the Valley Facebook page and in honour of Remembrance Day we have this lovely colour palette for you to follow.
.
Your make must include a Lili of the Valley image and at least one of the colours from the palette. Easy peasy! There are 3 prizes on offer and the winners will be drawn at random from all the entries;
1st - £20 LOTV voucher
2nd - £15 LOTV voucher
3rd - £10 LOTV voucher
For my inspiration card I have used Icy Hugs and two of the Christmas Sentiment Tag stamps
To start off I stamped Icy Hugs onto Sheena's stamping card with Black Archival Ink and then coloured it with Spectrum Aqua markers.
Rather than colouring the image directly with the pens, I scribbled the pens onto a white tile and picked up the colour with a small paintbrush.

Rather than colouring the image directly with the pens, I scribbled the pens onto a white tile and picked up the colour with a small paintbrush.
I did the shadows and skin first (Charcoal and Peach)
then added the rest of the colours:
Her dress: Desert
Her hat/scarf: Begonia
His hat/jumper: Slate
His scarf/gloves/trousers: Navy
(I did add some Begonia directly onto the card for the darkest areas of red since the colour wasn't intense enough otherwise).
I layered up the finished image onto a 6"x6" card blank with 'Frosted Winter' papers from Trimcraft and a bit of cheesecloth. The snowflakes and Christmas trees were die-cut from white card (Joy crafts and Sizzix dies)
As a finishing touch I added some Glamour Dust glitter to the ice
and Ranger Enamel Dots in the corners
I would like to enter this in the following challenges:-
