Clearly Besotted December Teasers Day 2

Welcome back ! We have a musical theme going on today. Plus the design is influenced by Covid-19 ! The set is called ‘Howl, It’s Christmas!’

They’re a funny bunch, and normally the Pemberley Pooch Choir would be going around the village, knocking on doors and singing their heart out to raise money for the local cat shelter. Despite there being a ban on singing (for reasons of reducing the spread of the virus) they couldn’t miss out on singing carols so they decided to temporarily move into Barney’s big spacious house so they could spend the month of December singing and sharing Christmas together.

Normally I’d have created a window scene looking outside with the animals singing in the winter air, but thought the ‘bubbled’ pooches might be just as much fun. The window needed curtains, so I ransacked my fabric collection and sewed 2 thin strips (just a straight line- anyone can do that) and adhered them behind the die cut frame.

I’d quite like some of those curtains myself. I then coloured the scene using alcohol markers but added some softness using Prismacolor pencils. They are a lively bunch aren’t they and apart from mistakenly stamping a musical note so that it was sticking out of Rufus’ head, I didn’t make too many errors.

I added the Christmas tree behind them all and added the bone bedecked music stand on foam pads for a little height. I used up a little bit of patterned paper. Barney certainly has good taste in carpets!!

So. Now off to the Clearly Besotted Blog then to visit Lisa and Michelle then our guest Francine for more merriment.

See you tomorrow for more teasers!
