Ice Skating Phoebe

Good morning!  I've got a winter card featuring a sweet little girl from Your Next Stamp.

This adorable girl is from the Ice Skating Phoebe stamp set.  I couldn't find her in the shop so I think the set must be retired.  I diecut a watercolor paper panel using the Stitched Rectangle Die Set.  I used distress inks to create a watercolor background and then added a snowbank from white cardstock.  I colored Phoebe and the trees with copics and diecut them using the coordinating dies.  I added a diecut snowflake with a pearl in the center to finish my card.

Hello

Hello everyone!  Today I'm sharing a card that I posted over on The Greeting Farm Blog.

This little sweetie is from the Sparkle Kit.  There are 12 adorable girls in this kit, along with a couple of fun sentiments.  This kit is limited edition so if you want it (and you know you do) grab it from the shop before they're all sold out!  I colored this little fairy with copics and added some Glamour Dust to her wings.  I spattered some distress ink on the card base and stamped a sentiment from the kit.  I added a strip of paper along the bottom, adhered the image with foam tape and then added a few sequins for a bit of sparkle.

Copics Used:

Skin - E04, E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, R20

Hair - E44, E43, E42, E41

Outfit - YG17,YG03, YG01

Wings - B000

Feathers - BG01, B000, YR12, YR00, V12, V000, R81, RV10

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs, Anita

Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop

Welcome to the Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop!  If you are looking for some inspiration for those last minute Christmas cards, you have come to the right place!  Our team has decided to do a monthly Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop! We will be sharing Christmas creations on the 25th of each month.

The whole idea is to have some Christmas cards and projects in our stash all ready to go for December 2018!

 

I began my card by cutting a piece of white cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" in order to create an A2 size card.  I used the Stitched Circle Frame  from My Favorite Things to create a frame, backed it with a piece of snowflake paper from my stash, and adhered it to my cardbase.  I used the Snow Drifts die to cut a snowbank, stamped my sentiment, and adhered it to the bottom of the frame.  I colored the sweet polar bear from the Polar Pals stamp set with copics and diecut it using the coordinating die.  I used a black glaze pen on the bear's eyes and nose.  I adhered the bear with foam tape to give my card some dimension.  I added a few snowflakes with pearls to finish my card.   

 

Please hop along and be sure to visit each of the blogs.  There's lots of inspiration and ideas to get your creative juices flowing!
