More Whipper Snapper

I'm sorry, but I seem to have cornered the market on Whipper Snapper images this holiday seaon...and I haven't even inked them all up yet! This is one really big image! I love this jolly Santa and his faithful capped companions. Colored with Copics and accented with a Sakura Stardust gelly roll pen. The penguins are popped up over the original image and Santa's gloves and popped up yet again for more dimension which you can see below. All Santa's hair and the pompom on his hat are flocked as well as the white stripes on the trim of his coat. His shoes were covered in Diamond Glaze. The holly leaves are from Kim Hughes set Christmas Critters by Cornish Heritage Farms and a glittered brad for the berry. The sentiment is from Anna Wight's set North Pole Post by Whipper Snapper. The peppermint paper is from Heidi Grace and the peppermint brads were in my stash...I don't know who's they are as I've had them forever it seems. The cardstock and base are Bazzill and Prism papers.


Take a few minutes and check out the new Whipper Snapper Designs website. I am going to browse it today-looks great so far! I have been eagerly awaiting the launch!
