Two Gorjuss Girls.

Here's my DT card for this weeks Totally Gorjuss challenge. This week we are asking you to use two Gorjuss Girls on your card. You can put them together or separately we don't mind.

I coloured the Gorjuss Girls with Promarkers with an Inkssentials white gel pen for highlights. I finished the image by lightly chalking round to take the starkness away from the background.
DP:- MME wonderful winter - gorgeous and glittery.
Tools:- Martha Stewart flower and snowflake and edge punches.
Jewels and ribbon from my stash. Snowflakes are cut from glitter paper.
Nearly forgot I used the sketch from the Cupcake Craft challenge.

The card also fits a few challenges:-

Creative Card Crew challenge :- snowflakes.

Simon Says Stamp challenge :- all that sparkles.

Papertake Weekly :- spots and stripes.

So there it is another one for my Christmas card pile. I have to admit I did panic a bit about how I was going to do a card with two images on it lol! I haven't done much masking so I practised on a bit of scrap paper first. What I couldn't figure out at first was how I could use two Gorjuss Girls together in a way that would make sense. Once I had thought of a theme ie Christmas I could see which two images to use. I decided that the girl with the letter could have been writing to Santa on behalf of herself and her little sister. So there you have it.

I hope some of you will want to join us at the Totally Gorjuss challenge this week. I'm looking forward to seeing what you all make this time. I've enjoyed looking at your Gorjuss Girl creations during the last two weeks. Nearly forgot our sponsor this week is Hotshot Craft they have lots of lovely goodies at great prices and are always worth a look.
