Warm Winter Wishes


Hi, today I have a card to share with you using a stamp from Inkadinkado. I stamped the image and coloured it with Copic Markers before adding Glossy Accents to the eyes, holly leaves and carrot nose. The background paper I used is from K and Company. I made some texture paste using a tutorial by Pamellia Johnson, which can be found Here, and spread it through a Tim Holtz 'Honeycomb' stencil. The recipe for the home made texture paste is by far the best that I have tried so please pop on over and take a look for yourself as the cards and projects there are amazing. The ornate frame was cut from white card on my Silhouette and sprayed with Pearl Mist Spray. The Kraft card base was also cut using my Silhouette and edged with clear glitter. I have also made a Poinsettia and Holly leaves using a die set from Crafts- Too from Kraft Core card stock, to which I added even more texture paste. I also added more texture paste to the edge of the image and to the felt and metal snowflake embellishments. I finished the card with some lace and pearls from my stash, which I inserted underneath the Snowman. The card is 8 x 8 inches. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges: 



Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by.
