Hello!
It's Christmas Eve day and while I may not have to travel far to spend Christmas with my family many others are out on the roads or flying through these winter skies to get to their loved ones. That's why I thought today would be the perfect time to share this card that was recently colored Live on my Adventures in Coloring with Amy Facebook page. This young couple and their cute pup are from the Holiday Travels set and I had this vision of trying to capture the glow of lights from other cars on the highway in the background behind them. I'm fairly happy with my first attempt with the bright lights behind them but I kinda wish I had stamped them horizontal across the card front so there was more room on the right for the tail lights of the cars driving in the opposite direction. I promise this won't be the last time I try this kind of scene... practice, practice, practice! After the Live I added a flurry of snowflake die cuts that were air brushed a bit with the same light blue that I used in the scene. They create a nice frame around both the card and large over sized sentiment down below, tying everything together.
Safe travels to anyone braving the holiday hustle and bustle! :)
