Winter Wonderland

I was really inspired by the latest Heffy Doodle challenge. They threw down a challenge to create a winter wonderland. I wanted to think outside of the box and had the idea to make their adorable elephants into a snow elephant. It has taken a while for me to be able to find the time to get creating again, I am so glad that I got the chance to play and make this one today :) It was just so much fun to change this elephant up.

So the sets I have used are.....Santa's Village for the trees, Elephant of surprise for the elephants and finally wanna build a snowman for the sentiments and the adorable penguins. I used the Heffy Doodle first snow stencil to create the snowy ground. The whole scene is matted on some gorgeous sparkly silver card.

I stamped the elephant in memento Summer sky to make it look more like snow and used the same ink with my ink bushes to add the colour to the sky. I then stamped out all the other images and coloured them with the following tri-blend markers:

Snow elephant - Ice Blue Blend

Trees - Alpine Green Blend

Penguins hats and scarves - Dark Red Blend, Coral Shades, Gold Brown Blend

Penguins - Ice Grey Shade, Gold Yellow Blend and Ice Grey Blend
