Good Morning everyone in craft land, hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend. I have a great card today - well I think so and hope you do too. I recently purchased some Penny Black stamps from Sue and inked them up straight away. When I saw the challenge at My Time To Craft I immediately thought of one of these images - "Under my umbrella" - it is gorgeous. I have used the sketch at Sketch Saturday shown below.
I have used a red base card and then put a layer of kraft card on top. I have stamped snowflakes on the card using white ink and some snowflakes from an Elusive Images set called Snow is Falling.
I have coloured the image using water colour crayons and then glittered the snow on the umbrella. I have mounted the image on to Whitewash Core'dinations card and distressed it by sanding and scissors.
I then added the fibres at the top which I bought so long ago that I have forgotten where from but I am so glad I am now putting them to good use. I stuck a snowflake on top punched out of glitter card as are the others. I was a bit unsure about the colour scheme at first but I think it works really well now.
The other challenges I am entering are :-
Creative Inspirations - Sparkle,
Quixotic Challenge - Kraft and Red,
Simon Says - Animal Antics,
Creative Card Crew - Strings Attached,
Cute Daisy May Challenge - Touchy/Texture,
Sparkle Creations - Christmas Card,
Creatilicious Challenge - Snowflakes, Christmas and Sparkle, and
Saturday Challenge - Four Seasons - mine is Winter.
I would love to hear what you think and also don't forget I have candy here.
Hugs
