July 25th Outlaws Progressive Freebie Challenge and Christmas in July Blog Hop

I received this wonderfully cute image "Gingerbread Treat" by Twinkle Lane Designs for the July Progressive/Freebie Challenge at the awesome Outlaws Challenge!  This was a delight to color with my Prismacolor colored pencils.

I inked the edges with salty ocean Distress Ink and layered it on some canvas paper that I had plopped some acrylic paints from my palette on to keep from wasting them!  I added some acrylic silver paper towel tube circles with some old credit card to make some lines.  I added white acrylic paint to the snowflake and dots on the cup with a bit added on the fluffy pink marshmallows!   And there you have it a ready to send Christmas card in no time flat!  I am also playing along with Leigh's Christmas in July Blog Hop so of course this little guy is popping in there!
