Skiing fun- January Winter Color Challenge

 

Skiing fun, January Winter Color Challenge

Happy Thursday crafters. Echo here from Stamp N Ground. I am hosting the January winter Color Challenge over on the Unity Show N Tell Facebook group. Today I am sharing a card I made using three different kits. The trees are from Happy and Cozy, the snowman is from A Frosty Christmas, and the sentiment is from Whit’s Words. We are taking my daughter skiing for the first time this weekend. So, I had to reach for this adorable snowman kit.

Here is our color inspiration for this cozy winter color challenge.

 Ohh, how I love how all three stamp kits went together perfectly!

I started by stamping the trees from Happy and Cozy in the left corner of an A2 card panel with black Copic friendly ink. Memento in tuxedo black.

I then ink blended with distress inks. First I used mustard seed around the trees and then I did hickory smoke around the edges. Die cut a hillside and ink blended it with broken china.

Stamped the snowman from A Frosty Christmas, with Copic friendly black ink. Then color with Copic markers and fussy cut.

I used a fine sanding paper to sand the top edges of the card panel to give it a weathered look.  Distressed the edges with some scissors. Pop upped the snowman with foam tape. Stamped the sentiment from Whit’s Words with distress oxide in broken china.

 I hope you join the January winter color challenge.  Remember these challenges are meant to inspire not require. Let’s have some fun and stamp out something cozy.
