What a numpty...

...I was.

One of the things that I packed for my weekend away was my G45 folio using the "Christmas Carol" papers - I really wanted to get it finished so I packed everything into a storage box so that I would have everything to hand...or so I thought.

When I opened the box and got everything out, there was a very noticeable lack of G45 papers - Yep, I'd packed the embellies, the folio and the bits I'd cut out ready but somehow managed to leave the papers at home.

Everything got put back in the box.

Out came the colouring again.

This little Christmas Elf was a stamp that I couldn't resist...
 ...I tried her first off in some icy blues...
 ...and then had a bit of a play with my new "stitched" square nesting die set. But as I often do with Christmas images...
...I had to try it in a different colour combo...
 ...but didn't finish her off as I couldn't make up my mind on what other colours to use.
My "Fairy - Betty Boots" made another appearance...
 ...I do love this stamp...
...and this time I played with peach & chocolate shades.
I had this digi Saturated Canary image in my folder...
 ...so she got coloured - I think this is the first time I've coloured this one.
I grabbed another Christmas digi to have a play with...
 ...I have coloured this one once before but I was playing with my new Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens at the time. On this occasion...
 ...I used just Copics.
This Saturated Canary digi has seen quite a bit of use since I got her last year...
...and I do love trying different colour combos - different mixes of clothing and hair colourings give this a very different look each time.

So that was some more colouring done but there was more and that will shared in another post.........................................................................
