A "Non-Traditional" Christmas Card . . .

Hey hey hey!! Happy Thursday! Can you believe it's DECEMBER already?! And it's time for our very last challenge of the year over at Mo's DP2 Challenge Blog! Our theme (as always) is "Anything Goes" . . . and this month our optional theme is . . .

Non-Traditional Christmas Cards

I've had this cute little Mo Manning digi for a few months . . . and decided it's perfect for this month's challenge!! What do you think? Non-Traditional enough?!

This image is called "Skateboard Schoolboy" . . .  and is available HERE in Mo's online store. He's perfect for our 11 year-old grandson, Brody, who lives in Arizona (where there is no snow!) But there IS plenty of sunshine for "skateboarding"!!!

I colored this image with Copic Sketch Markers and a variety of Caran d'Ache, Faber-Castell, and Prismacolor pencils!! Here's a side view . . .
