Snow Lady

I started by printing a backing paper from a very old CD that I haven't looked at for years (!) It is from Chris's Paperworx Christmas WOW Backing Papers. Hands up anyone who has one of these lol!

I stamped the snow lady and coloured in using Promarkers before cutting out and adding glitter. The stamp is called Alice by Inca Stamp.

I then took a piece of white silk art card and created some colour using Tim Holtz alcohol inks and blending solution. Once this had dried I then used an embossing folder and my Cuttlebug. I cut some snowflakes out of acetate and pink card and held these together with a snowflake brad. To finish off I mounted a greeting onto acetate and cut it out. I then used clear sticky pads to attach it to the card.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Bah Humbug - 26 Acetate
CD Sunday - Christmas is Calling
CHNC - 27 Pink/Purple
The Stamp Man - Alcohol Inks and a sketch

  5. Hi Jocelyn. What a lot of work in your beautiful card - worth every moment.
    I think I have that CD from way back. I think it is my box of clearouts that haven't got quite as far as the amenity tip. I went off the Paperworx big time but you have used it so well. No - I mustn't fish it out.
    Thank you for joining us at CD Sunday.
    Hugs
