Hello everyone! Hope that this post finds you all well. We are officially down to just over a week until Christmas and things here have been super busy as always! Thankfully my shopping is done so most of the things that we have been busy with is fun family stuff.
Today I have a second project to share with you too keep our Christmas challenge going this month. We were asked to make anything but a card and I knew that I had just the perfect thing to create! I had bought this small wooden sled I think last year on clearance. I've had it in my closet because I could never quite decide what to do with it. Well... I finally figured it out!
For my project I used an image from My Besties which you can find here: http://www.mybestiesshop.com/store/p2893/INSTANT_DOWNLOAD_Digital_Digi_Stamps_Big_Eye_Big_Head_Dolls_Digi_Besties_Img917_By_Sherri_Baldy.html . I printed this on my printer as an 8x10 image. But before doing that I edited this in the software that came with my printer and just flipped the image so that it would be on there the correct way. I then covered my sled in modpodge and applied the printed digi stamp face down on the sled and allowed it to dry over night. The next day I used a damp cloth to get the paper off and it left me with the transferred image.
To color the image I used my Sharpies. I would love to give you a list of the colors I used but sadly the markers do not have the name colors :( . So just go with whatever colors you wish ;) . The background is painted using acrylic paint and then it is sealed with mod podge again once everything is dry. I do however recommend the spray mod podge to seal this as it is much easier to use I find.

Happy Crafting,
