'Little Shepard' Christmas ornaments - Tera

Hallo,
Just stopping in today to show you a few Christmas ornaments I made using this sweet image called 'Little Shepard' from Aurora Wings.
I printed him up smaller than I usually do for cards so he would fit inside the ornament.
I colored him with copics and then cut him out with a circle die and edged the edges with gold metallic pen.
I backed the image with glitter paper and added some beads inside the ornament too.
These turned out so cute and were very easy to do too!!!!
Take Care

I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.
