Deacon Elf Shows Up for Christmas

Greetings!

First, for a note for those worried about the possible adverse health effects of my poor Winter Fairy from yesterday's post... let me reassure you. She's a winter fairy, and thus magically impervious to cold, despite the ethereal, glittery, featherlight dress she's wearing. She thanks you for your concern but assures you she is comfortably zipping about, spreading sparkling snowflakey goodness across the northern hemisphere even as we speak. =)

Now, on to the second of my niece's Christmas cards I finished last night...

This one is a merge of two Bugaboo images featuring Deacon Elf. 

I used two sizes of the wonky rectangle Nestabilities, colored up my image with Copics, and then added three or four colors of Stickles, a bit of glitz with a Berwick gold ribbon, some green sparkly epoxy sticker dots from EK Success and a Studio G brad on my computer-created sentiment. I popped up the flag to give it some more dimension as well as foam dots here and there (will I ever run out of foam dots?), seen in these lovely angle shots (You will have to imagine the game-show hostess presentation hand wave haha):

 

Just a few challenges for this one...
