Ai Challenge - Cash Keepers (Any cards with cash)

I have shortened Art Impressions to Ai. :o) It matches the Art Impressions Blog and website, and it's just so cute!  This week's challenge is Cash Keepers (Any cards with cash).  I picked this cute, cute Santa Card Keeper set. Each card keeper set comes with directions.


I'm using my Spectrum Noir Markers on this project. When I get ready to start coloring with my markers, I get out my color combo chart that shows my favorite combinations of colors. There's a link on my sidebar. I update the chart as I add more favorite combinations.  After I picked my colors, I colored. :o) hehehe.

Next, I cut the slits for the cash (or gift card) per the directions.



I added adhesive only around the edges, to allow for the money to be slipped in. To add some dimension,  I used Liquid Pearls for the fur trim on Santa clothing, Star Dust Stickles for the snow on the chimney, and Rock Candy Stickles for his beard.
