Happy Hanukkah!

Hi, everyone, Kelli here!  The holidays are fast approaching!  Hanukkah will be here in just a few days which means I had to make a card for my Grandma!  Hanukkah colors are generally blue and silver, but I always feel like yellow should be included.  Maybe it's because I think about the flame on the candles or something, lol.  I used the super adorable Sweetheart Birgitta by C.C. Designs stamped in Memento - Tuxedo Black ink.  I felt it wasn't very Hanukkah-y, even with the computer printed sentiment so I decided to cut a dreidel out by hand.  I actually traced it with a pencil and regular printer paper right from my computer screen and used that as a template and did the same with the two little blue stars on it!  Oh, and if you were wondering, the Star of David (on the banner) is a capital Y on the Wingdings font.  :)


To color this little cutie I used Copics:
hair - E29, E27, E25, E23
skin - YR00, E00, R22 for cheeks
dress - B37, B34, B39 for shadows
dress cuff, bows, shoes - B34, B32, C7 and C5 for shoe soles
tights - Y13, Y11, Y000, C3, C1, N0
 Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!  :)
