Hello Friends and Happy Wednesday! I have a quick share today featuring an adorable Hula Dancing Gnome from Stamping Bella. I couldn't resist this digital image, and though I'm not one who uses Gnome images frequently, this guy is cute and I'm happy I have him.
After coloring him with Copic Alcohol Markers, I fussy cut him and added foam pads for dimension. The patterned papers are from the "Summer" 6x6 paper pad by Carta Bella, which I've had in the stash for a couple of years. The sentiment is included in the digital set and I've cut it using a stitched nesting die from Kat Scrappiness. It has been mounted on foam pads as well.
Lastly, I've added Gold Dazzles to highlight the sentiment. He was a fun and quick color; I can't get over his middle aged "spare tire". My husband commented this could be him in a grass skirt. At least he said it, and not me!
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
Donna

Hi Donna, looks like that is one happy dancing the hula gnome, part of me thinks he'd make a great Father Christmas for those of us who celebrate Christmas during summer. Love the summery patterned papers you have used. Thank you for joining us at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and good luck in the prize draw...
