Happy Tuesday!
I did not set out to create a wintery card for today, but when it’s snowy outside it tends to make you reach for the snowy stuff inside! When I sat down to play, I pulled out a variety of stencils and played around with backgrounds, some of which you will see on future projects because they just didn’t work with the Snowman Joy die that I decided I wanted to make something with again.
This time I cut my snowman from glittery Cardstock, which seems to suit him just fine! I paired him with some tall glittery letters as well- the sweet Twiggy Hugs die by Memory Box.
The base layer is stenciled with MFT Candy Stripes, then a snowflake stencil (by Paper Rose) over the stripes. I’ve seen some fun layered stencils lately and wanted to experiment… it kinda worked, but wasn’t quite a perfect pair! It makes for an interesting layer on my card though!
I took the still inky snowflake stencil and applied clear texture paste through it onto the teal Cardstock layer as the base for my snowman. It give a subtle, shiny but tinted snowy pattern that worked much better behind the die cuts!
I finished off my card with some stitched edges by MFT, a chit chat sticker by Tim Holtz and a bit of Studio Katia bling.
Inky (and snowy) hugs,
Tara
Sooo cute!
