Hi everyone! Time for another challenge with Kraftin Kimmie. This week it’s my turn to host. Since my brain has been in a hundred different places lately, I picked something easy….a sketch.
If you’d like to play along, be sure to post a link on the Krafty Blog HERE for your chance to win a free Christmas Clara (as I’ve used below).
Holiday Hugs
I colored Clara with my markers then paper-pieced her dress and bows. Afterwards, I added some shading using more markers and pencils. (Maybe a little too much. Oops.)
Be sure to check out the Krafty Blog for more samples using this sketch. And I hope you’ll play! 
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!
