Merriest Wishes...

Olo!

It's my day to post at 7 Kids and since the holiday release from Hello Bluebird is now available in the store I couldn't wait to play with the First Snow set once again. I LOVE the little reindeer making snow angels and couldn't wait to tackle a bird's eye view type of scene with him. Since I really wanted him to have a buddy I grabbed the other reindeer in the set, who is technically standing, and just colored the snow angel lines around him too. It's a simple addition but effective because just like that I've got two reindeer playing their reindeer games together in the snow. I also added some hats from a couple older HB sets for a bit of added color and cuteness. Then to really sell the whole bird's eye view perspective I colored in some large snow covered pine branches in the foreground. These were completely inspired by the amazing miss Crissy Armstrong and her fabulous snowman card that she shared a few days ago. I've still got a lot of practice to do to get mine looking as good as Crissy's but I so appreciate the inspiration and challenge that she provided. Thanks Crissy!

Alrighty, I've got a lot on my to-do list and a birthday to celebrate today... have a good one!
