Here we are at Friday people! And it's a Flourishes Friday where we get to show you any little thing our heart desires :) I thought I'd go with a wintery theme, since I'm still in Christmas mode.
We had a little snow again the last few days, not too much which is good, because it always looks so lovely when it falls. But now it's ccccold!
I pulled out last years snow globe set - Joy is in the Air for some snowy fun. Our 9 year old plays in the snow most days after school he loves building forts and cutting ice chunks. So I love the playful fun of this scene.
The image is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Flourishes Classic White Cardstock. I paired the set with some really fun Echo Park - This and That Christmas, and three of our Color Made Easy Collections of cardstock - Poppy, Pistachio and Emerald Coast. I did some pretty stitching around the layers and then added some thin velvet ribbon, twine and a button.
Behind the snow globe I added a very glitterfied, flower-softed snowflake that I had cut out with my Spellbinders die. Gives it that cozy feeling I think.
Coloring is done with Copics in these collections:
And above is the inside of the card.
Now, for extra fun, this sketch I used today was also one I had used on a card earlier this summer and it's being showcased today at iSpy Sketches! Hope you check it out and join in!
Now head on over to the rest of the team today to see their fabulous cards on this Free for All Friday!
And come back tomorrow when the Design Team helps Becky Fleck kick off a new month of Card Sketches at PageMaps!
Hey gang...I've had to turn on word verification for comments (which I despise because it's so hard to read), because I've had so much spam lately! Sorry for the inconvenience! Hopefully this will eliminate the spam for a while and then I'll change it back again.
