SHOPPING OUR STASH #434 - Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

 

Hello friends and welcome!

The new challenge starts today at

SHOPPING OUR STASH,

and as I'm sure you've guessed, we would like to see

snow in some form on your projects!

Here's what I came up with:

and the inside:

I bought this gorgeous snowflake tree stamp at least a year ago, and

I'm only inking it up now. (For Shame!)

I first stamped and heat embossed it in white EP. Then I sprinkled

Magenta Nuance powder dyes in Cerulean Blue and Purple and

used a water mister on it. The hardest part is setting it aside to dry

on it's own. Once it was, I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed

it in white also. To ground the tree, I simply drew some 'land' with a white Gelly Roll pen.

Since I had the items out, I made another panel!

This one uses Violet and Raspberry powder inks:

and the inside:


I hope that you can find time to play along this fortnight in our

snow challenge at Shopping Our Stash!

for your viewing pleasure. Thanks for visiting.

I hope that you have a great day!

Happy Ho Ho Holidays

 Hello and happy Saturday to you!

I've been in Christmas card making mode all week, and

want to share one of them:


 

I used the Taylored Expressions Nordic Holiday embossing folder for

the main panel. After embossing, I smooshed some gold

ink on my craft mat, loaded up my brayer, and

rolled over the design. I repeated that two more times so that

the gold ink showed up really good. Santa and Mrs. Claus

were stamped, colored and die cut, then given a coating of

Nuvo glitter drops in White Blizzard here and there.

 The sentiment has the same

gold glitter paper matte as the main panel. 

 

Another sentiment finishes the inside.

 

One more Christmas card done. A gazillion more to go.

Thanks for visiting, have a great day!
