I think all my snowmen cards are working, they closed the Sierras this morning because of too much snow! LOL Oh well, I don't think one more will hurt! It has not only snowed a lot in the mountains, but it has been pretty darn cold here in the valley, like in the 30's and 40's! Not a good temperature for a pool cleaner like myself. In fact, went to get out of my truck at one pool, put my foot down, stood up and in a split second I was laying down in the driveway! Hopefully nobody saw me because I bet it was a site to be seen! I didn't get hurt, thank goodness, but I am pretty sore. Never thought to look for ice! ......on to the card...
Made the bg by sponging different blues on glossy cs, then dabbed alcohol blending solution over top. Stamped the snowdrops with versa mark, and white ep them. Set aside.
Stamped my image on w/c paper, colored with re-inkers. Put liquid applique on the tree and sheep. Colored the tree one with peeled paint. Sponged around my image, cut it out using part of an oval coluzzle. Added the glitter on the top part, doodled edges.
Put the bg panel on a white card sponged bashful blue and doodled edges. Popped up my image panel. There you have it, one snow holiday blues card! Hope you like it.......TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Glad to see you posted today! TWO cards, yikes!
