Disco Dancing Elves



Got these Elves and the disco Ball in the mail at the end of last week and couldn't wait to ink up.
After seeing the card at Muse Challenge #140 I had an idea jump into my head. This is the card:

Isn't it just so cute and it's done by Ardyth. I thought of leaving my elves black and white but



colour won so I have used the little critters in a row, the red balloon and the layer of white card stock on a grey card base for my inspiration.


Instead of a balloon I have used a disco ball (these stamps are from Purple Onion and the disco ball is actually one of three but I masked off the other two). All coloured with copics and after I coloured the disco ball I added some sparkle from a glitter pen and really love the end effect. These little fella's look like their doing a version of 'River Dance'!! 
Finished this layer off by stamping the'Merry Christmas' sentiment.


Once that was done, I layered the white cardstock onto a bit of fun foam to give a little lift to the panel then attached to a piece of grey cardstock.

All ready to enter into:





Okay thats it for today. Thanks for coming to have a look and I hope you come again soon.
