Snow Fun



Happy Tuesday everyone! :) I hope your week is off to a great start :) I'm so excited for the four-day weekend coming up. I just have to make it through the next two days, which are crazy! :)

I have a quick posting for ya today. I decided to use another Spiral Whisper stamp for my card today. This one is called Milly and Snowman. I first stamped the image with Memento black ink onto Georgia Pacific cardstock and then colored it in with my copics. I added Stickles everywhere (I may have gone a little overboard with the stickles :):):):)) and I sponged around the image with SU's Bashful Blue ink. Next, I created my card base (which measures 5 1/2 by 4 1/4) out of SU's Night of Navy. I layered Bravo Burgundy on top of that followed by Handsome Hunter and then my design paper from K&Co. I tied a navy blue ribbon from Michael's dollar bin around the main panel. I tied the snowman charm (which I found at Wal-Mart) into the bow. I then used my nestabilities to cut out the scalloped rectangles and mounted the image panel to the card base using dimensionals.

It's a pretty simple layout, but I'm pleased with how it turned out. I'd love to hear what you think. Thanks so much for stopping by. More tomorrow :)

Hugs, Christine :)
