Snowball fight

It’s a snowball fight! Pam’s sent in another wonderful card and Tombow coloring chart. I think the bright cheery colors really stand out against the winter white background. And using Stickles for some snow sparkle really adds a great detail.

Now watch out ’cause Cora’s ready to throw another snowball!

Billy and Sparky at the window

Georgia’s in the holiday spirit again. This time she used Billy and Sparky looking out the window. Again I love the black framing she’s done, just really makes the image pop out. And I simply must go to the craft store and get some lime green grosgrain ribbon! I love the added red jingle bell. Wonderful card Georgia!

Look out! Cora’s ready to throw

Filed Under DT: Mandy, People, Winter | 3 Comments

The soft serene blues in the background are so calming and then WHACK you’re hit with a snowball thrown by little Cora! The flower and little pearl embellishments are just the right touch. A lovely card by Mandy.

Snow tastin’ Becky

Filed Under Holly, Winter | 1 Comment

This card actually went together pretty easily.

  1. Start with a light-teal blue card for the background. Stamp Official Snow Taster image around background.
  2. For the stripe I used a Cookie Cutter dots border die (by Quickutz UPC #822431015329) – these are actually about a foot long, so don’t let my card fool ya.
    dots-cookie-cutter
  3. Cut out a stripe of white cardstock slightly larger than the first stripe (step 2) and mount both on the background card.
  4. Cut out a circle of white cardstock and stamp Becky. Color her in – I used my Copic markers. I also added just a hint of blue around her (Copic color: BG0000).
  5. Cut out a scalloped circle using the same paper as your stripe.
  6. After you mount everything to the card add the three snowballs (Mark Richards glitter dome stickers).

Mrs. McTwitter – Winter

Filed Under Holly, Winter | 2 Comments

mrsmctwitter-winterclearpixelThis is Mrs. McTwitter and Tootsie – the Winter version.

  1. Stamp the background word stamp (from Purple Onion Designs) and then emboss some swirls using clear embossing ink and sparkly embossing powder.
  2. Cut out the word block and mount it onto the snowflake paper.
  3. Stamp Mrs. McTwitter onto some white cardstock (I use Bristol paper) and use Copic markers to color her and Tootsie in.
  4. Cut around the image and then add a little glitter to her jacket color and cuff.
  5. Use thick glue dots to adhere her and Tootsie to the card.
  6. Mount the whole thing on the pink cardstock.
