Gnome Holiday

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! Does it feel & look like fall in your area? The leaves are changing fast & some have already lost their leaves. A cold front is blowing through now & I think temps may be falling into the 30's tonight.
I think this little gnome already has full winter where he lives. This scene isn't hard to do..I just had to sit & think a bit on exactly what was going where in order to determine the order I needed to stamp everything. I really didn't have to mask anything except the tree trunk on the left.
After coloring everything, I thought it looked a little empty on the right, so I stamped, colored & fussy cut the Christmas tree, cut a slit & inserted the trunk. I added some stickles to areas of the snow, mountains & trees for some sparkle on the snow.
Here's the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Julie, this is beautiful and so fun! Love everything you put together, your fabulous coloring and great dies. Love the new Christmas tree too. I can't wait to make Christmas cards this weekend and this totally inspires me!!! Hugz
You have created such a lovely scene for your gnome to dwell! I wouldn’t mind living there, though I’d need a bigger tree house! Beautiful coloring, design & combination of images. I really like this gorgeous card!
What an amazing scene you've created Julie! I love the added Christmas tree on the right and your cleverness in how you added it. Fabulous colors and coloring too, especially the tree shadows in the snow!
This is so beautifully done! I love that he lives right next to a river and the Christmas tree is a perfect addition to this scene! Love the mountains and trees in the bg and the shadows are wonderful...I think it's icy over there! lovely removal of the mushrooms too! Never thought of doing that!
Beautiful card!
