I'm excited to again be joining the Aurora Wings Showcase Team for the November new release. These little cuties are called Christmas Wreath Besties, perfect for your animal loving friends. I decided to go with traditional Christmas colors and cut them with Spellbinders Grands and popped them on a red and white base with a border die by Sue Wilson.
Here's a closeup of Christmas Wreath Besties. I've colored with Copics and used some white Flower Soft over Glistening Snow Writer on the fur of their caps and Nuvo Drops for ornaments on the wreath. The hardest part was deciding how to color the adorable kitten and puppy, but also the most fun. Next time I think I'll try some non traditional pastels for a totally different look.
Christmas Wreath Besties available on AuroraWings.com
Mitzi has also added another glamorous fairy to her stunning collection of beauties. Meet Lady Rose, available in two different poses. (jpg only)
