I haven't sledded in a long time. Sure sounds like fun, but then again, so does sitting by a roaring fire with a cup of hot cocoa. I'll take the cocoa please. hehe
Today we were to do emboss resist, one of my favorite things to do......my card.....
I drew this sledder yesterday, colored him with prisma pencils/gamsol. Lightly penciled in the hills, then stamped the Rubbernecker Trees with peeled paint. Re-stamped them with versamark white ep'ing them.
Shaded the snowhills with acrylic paint, then sponged on some whisper white and white eb'd. Got carried away with the snow look. Oh well.
For the sky, I stamped Rubbernecker snowflakes with clear eb, then sponged stormy sky over top. Layered this with a white cs panel that I sponged the edges with red pepper then clear ep'd.
Put this on a white AC square card, made a bow which qualifies this for the CAS96 challenge today. Done.
Well, a brief windy rainy storm blew through last night, made for lot's of leaves to net out of the pools today. Job security I call that. hehe.......have a great week everyone!......TFL :0)

as a kid sleigh riding was pretty fun, I went last year and I screamed a lot and fell face first into the snow after sledding down backwards, not to much fun now in my book. Maybe next time I should try softer snow. Awesome card Cathy, love how you have the snow up on the sled, love the happy bright colors, too cute, TFS
