Christmas Angel Card with Galaxy Sky for Adornit

Christmas is just a handful of days away, and I'm still making Christmas cards.  Today, I'm coloring up a galaxy night sky on this lovely paintable image from Adornit, featuring the Season's Greetings collection, designed by Lindsay Ostrom.

Adornit has released several new Art Play Paintable collections and, keeping you in mind, there's something for everyone; seasonal, all occasion, documented faith and more.  You can check out the entire selection of paintables, here.





I love coloring with the cake paints.  This background was so easy to create, simply by dipping your wet waterbrush into the cake paint and swipe random sections of color.  I started with the dark blue's and purples, then added some red and black.  A white gel pen comes in handy for "dotting" stars in the sky.  Just make sure your painted background is dry, first.  The artistic paintables paper is designed to accept many mediums of color.  I've even used waterbased markers and watercolor pencils.









The Seasons Greetings collection comes with 9 images to color and 9 sentiments for mixing and matching.  I chose the Peace on Earth sentiment, coloring with the dark blue/purple paints, but decided to fussy cut the words, so as not to cover up my angel too much.  It was detailed work but I love the outcome.  Of course, you could put the sentiment on the inside of your card as well.  I've trimmed strips of foam tape to pop up my sentiment for added dimension.

Peace On Earth - Coloring with Tombow and Adornit #ad

As a craft blogger, I'm often tied to deadlines and projects that are thematic.  I love what I do, but sometimes a girl just needs to be able to sit down, take a little "me" time and chill.  This is one of those moments; coloring for my own pleasure.



Coloring Books are super hot right now, including the Adornit Art Play products.  Their new coloring books for adults (or kids of all ages!) and holiday themed Art Play Paintables are everywhere!  I highly recommend you get your hands on some.  You can find clickable links throughout my post, as I'm making it easy for you.  Sharing the love, is what I do.  Particularly, when it's a product that I adore and use myself.
 

I colored my image from the Holly Jolly collection, designed by artist Lindsay Ostrom, using my Tombow dual brush markers. 

from: Scrapbook.com



Once I finished coloring, I did a little "smooshing"; running my markers across an acrylic block (or craft mat), spritzing with water, then blotting your paper onto the wet colors.  I did this one color at a time.
 

To finish off my piece, I inked up a white doily with distress spray then added glitter glue to my colored mistletoe, beautiful mini pom pom ribbon from The Ribbon Resource and Skittles bubble embellishments. 





 

"Gold Metallic String" - $4.95
