I'm surprising myself lately with some of my colors. I rarely use purple in anything but for some reason, the DP out there this season is inspiring me!!! I'm loving it! It's such a fresh color scheme for holiday cards. Wanna know what else is inspiring me??? Jen del Muro's sketches are rocking. The stamp is called Polar Gifts Cling from Stampendous that I bought at my Local stamp store. The image has been watercolored with my Tombow Markers and a water brush. I have to say (patting myself on the back) that I really like how my coloring turned out on this card. See the snowflakes??? I made these using matching DP as the card as well as a MS Snowflake punch. Before punching the snowflakes out, I put some thick Scor-tape on the DP and then punched the flakes. I then added Dazzling Diamonds for a bit of glitz. You know me... I love me some bling!! Each layer of DP has been dry embossed with various embossing folders and I've sponged the edges of each with co-ordinating inks.
