This Dr. Digi's Holly Jolly Horace digi just cracks me up and is made for a sarcastic sentiment (my favorite kind). I used it for the first time in 2020. I think we can all agree 2020 was a tough year and my Horace card that year set the perfect holiday tone. It's interesting to compare the two colorings – this one uses pencils while the 2020 one used markers.
I raided my paper scraps bin for the papers, a blend of printed digital and purchased papers. Favorite velvet brads with the tines cut off (the only way I ever use a brad) serve as embellishments. The sentiment was created with Ink Free font.

Such a fun card - although I'm not sure I'd like to meet him in a pub! I really like the look of the pencil colouring. And great job with all the papers as they all coordinate fabulously!

What a cool Christmas card you made with this funny digi. It's so beautifully colored.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you're participating in the kleuren met Potloden Challenge.
I've been following you for a while now and I keep trying to become a follower, but unfortunately, it never works. I keep getting an error message. I've been having this problem for a while and can't follow other blogs either. I hope it works out sometime. But I'll definitely keep following you, even if I'm not a follower of yours. Hehe.
Crafty Hugs, Astrid
Haha, what a fantastic card! Horace looks absolutely disgusted to see holly in his beer. So much fun!
