Hang Your Stocking for CAS Christmas

Hi there.  Are you ready for the weekend?

Maybe you can play at CAS Christmas this weekend.


Trina is our host this month and she chose

I love these little owls with their stockings hung and waiting for Santa!

I've stamped the scene in Jet Black Archival ink and
used Zigs to watercolor the image.  I let it dry and using wet on wet
technique, I painted some Tumbled Glass in the background.

There's a little timid splatter of snow.

How will you hang your stocking?
Our Guest Designer, Helen, and our Design Team
have some awesome inspiration pieces for you.
Check them out at CAS Christmas.


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

    We were on the same wavelength, my friend!! Love your sweet owls and stockings. Great colouring as always, Bonnie!! And I love your timid splatting of snow ... I got totally carried away with mine and you can barely see the owls through all the snow. :) xx

    I have that stamp (and love it) so was going to use it for this challenge but you and Loll beat me to it! Wonderful traditional festive colours, great framing, and a perfect watercolour wash background. I had to laugh when you described your "timid scattering of snow" whereas Loll described putting her owls in a blizzard!

    Bonnie, I had to do a double take because Loll did owls on the branch too...so clever! And you used watercolor also! Even though the owls are different they too are just as cute as can bee. What a fun stamp set and love all the stockings hanging from the branch!

    A great scene with sweet birds. I love how you painted a picture with watercolors. The touch of color is delicate and it looks wonderful.

    These little owls are so adorable, Bonnie! Your Zig watercoloring is so beautiful! The feathers look soft and fluffy! I would make a blotch, probably while coloring the third owl's belly. ;-P
    Your sky with a subtle splatter of snow looks beautiful too!

    It's so fun that you and Lolly both used owls for your cute images, Bon-Bon! The weather is nicer where your family lives, lol, but like Lolly's your family is colored perfectly!! Hugs, Darnell
