Yesterday, Ardyth chose Mary, octoberbabe, as this week's FS! Yeah Mary! CONGRATULATIONS! From page 6 of your vast gallery I chose Sitting in the Snow. I kept your snowman theme & changed
- orientation of the card
- no punched edge, replaced with ribbon
- used different colors & stamp
I colored with Spectrum Noir alcohol pens. I see I forgot to add some 'snowy' stickles under the snowman. I'll add that later.
This is also for Judy's, TLC, Let It Snow - to use a technique for the snow. I may have taken the easy way out, but my card needed snow. I mixed a small amount of white acrylic paint with water & dipped in a toothbrush. I flicked on the snow. I also sponged a little around the oval while still in the die with Marina Mist.
Mary, I hope you enjoy your time in the spotlight & the cards made in your honor.
Thanks for stopping by.

This is too cute, Karen! What a great job you did on that adorable snowman! I have also always admired your gorgeous sponging, so light and a wonderful accent to your image.
