I used SU! garden green and real red cs and dazzling diamonds. The little fellow is colored with Copics, cut out and popped. He's busy Christmas shopping in the city while those cute kiddos are caroling on the streets!
The challenges for my wintery card...
Stamp Something~bling.
Theme Thursday~winter.
Lili of the Valley~child Christmas card.
Copic Colour chall.~BG05, R27, G02....I used a different green!
La-la Weekly Wed.~winter Christmas.
For my next scene...I went underwater, using this adorable Emma the mermaid from Fred, She Said! I wanted to show a sample for those of you who 'dread' scene challenges. You can simply print out Emma and 'accessories' cut and paste....there is even a pre colored background available! Makes a cute card, don't ya think?!
I used SU! pacific point blue and ran it through the cuttlebug...for a bubbly look! Emma was glamed up with bunches of glitter! The inside sentiment is SU congrats set!
I hope you'll play along with us this week and create a scene! Checkout the rest of the DT, they've all created such gorgeous projects!!!! Our special guest designer representing Squigglefly this week is our very own beloved Holly, pop by her blog to see her scene and leave her some love!

Amazing Coloring and spectacular scenes. I am just in awe. These turned out so beautifully Maria. Your coloring and shading are perfect.
I will see if I am following you, I don't want to miss a thing!
OH Maria!! I think BOTH of your creations are just ADORABLE!! What a very clever way to make a fun Christmas shopping scene and I really love your underwater babe!! She's so sweet and what fun bubbles for her to play in!! Thank you so much for your really fabulous creations each and every week Maria!! HUGS
OHHH HOW CLEVER! I LOVE this Maria! Your coloring on this lil guy is unbelievable! Love his highlights! Leaving the carolers b/w really makes him POP! Perfect BG with the Dazzling Diamonds too!
Also love the mermaid card...FABULOUS coloring here too! The embossed BG really stands out! Fantastic job on both!
Hugs~
i never know what i'm gonna find here and it's always FABULOUS! i just love that xmas card! super creative.
hugs,
This is such a great idea.. I love that you kept the background uncolored.. It really makes your main caroler pop.. These images are so cute.. Your mermaid is perfectly done too.. You did a great job..
ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!! LOVE the Christmas scene ... the addition of the sparkly snow really give you the feeling of being out there in the hustle bustle of holiday shopping with the snow lightly landing on your nose! Awesome creation!
And how cute is this little mermaid! You've gone from one weather element to the other and done them both equally well!! Great job!!!
how cute! I love this!
Fabulous job on both of these cards Maria. I really agree with Darlene - you do get the feeling of being out on a busy street doing some last minute Christmas shopping!
Maria I think BOTH of your creations are just Gorgeous!! What a very clever way to make a fun Christmas scene and I really love your underwater babe!! She's so cute,Hugs Debbie x
OMY how cute are these? Love the carolers and so want a glittery tail like your mermaid!!
Crystal, these are both just uber-cute! I especially love the first one! Great way to make a scene! You go girl!!!
I am so glad you decided to put both scenes up Maria. I love them both!! I love how you used the embossing as part of your scene in the second and how you spotlighted the boy with the gifts on the first. Brilliant!! Your creations are always such a treat as are you.
Thanks so much for your kind words on my blog. They mean so much. I am so lucky to have a special friend like you.
hugs,
Chris
These are both super! Love the layout on the first and the bugged BG on the second one is brill!
Perfect combination of images in your caroling card and the sparkly snow is such a wonderful accent.
I love that mermaid; she's adorable in her underwater scene and that sentiment is hilariously appropriate!
gorgeous card!
Maria both of these are Darling!!! I just love the uncolored image in the bg on the first one...it looks fantastic!!! Your second card with the mermaid is just soooo cute, great embossing and what a sweet image!!! Hugs!

Lovely designs! The mermaid is my favorite (Of course! :) ) Thanks for participating in WIS Verona's Saturday Challenge!
I love your scene cards, Maria, but the one with the kids caroling has to be my fav. out of the two. I love how you left the background kids uncolored. Brave move! It makes the one with the gifts stand out more! I love the layout design too. The whole card is fabulous!
Fabulous creations Maria, super colouring and your christmas card steals the show for me.
Hugs,
Nicola -x-
