This week's Featured Stamper is Laura (aka incindiary). When I was browsing through her gallery I saw two cards (here and here) featuring the old Snowy Postcard stamp. I haven't used it for quite awhile so was inspired to get it out and make this card. I changed up the colour scheme completely and left off the embellishments Laura used.
I watercoloured the image inside the oval and sponged Antique Linen around the edges and up to the oval, and then darkened the outer edges with Brushed Corduroy. I went over the roofs and the fence tops with a Quickie glue pen and added glitter. I sprinkled white chunky Frantage over the image and heated it from underneath so it wouldn't blow off.

So beautiful with such a wonderful, snowy scene. You did such a good job with the watercoloring.

I too have and love that stamp. When I saw Laura's cards I thought I might use it but didn't in the end. Your card is beautiful. I really like the way you coloured it. I putting it in my favourites for future consideration! Lovely tribute to the FS.

Fabulous case. Love how Laura's terrific cards inspired you to use a stamp that hasn't seen ink in awhile. You colored the image so beautifully. Love the added snow. Just a gorgeous card.
