More Warm Wishes

I find coloring to be very calming. I need to concentrate (but not too much) as I choose colors, direction of light, layout, etc. Exactly the distraction I needed this weekend. I especially loved thinking about how the firelight would cast a warm glow and how that glow would affect the colors perceived by the eye. And the embossing gave amazing movement to the fire and rocks as well. Total happenstance.

I'm entering this in TIME OUT #74 Winter, HLS January 2017 Christmas Anything Goes, Tuesday Throwdown #324 Winter Critters, and Cards in Envy Snowbirds

The Details:  MFT Toasty Greetings , Lawn Fawn Merry Messages, Carta Bella Plaid Stencil, Copics, Memento Tuxedo Black, Paper Studio embossing folder, Waltzing Mouse Stitched Scalloped Rectangle die
