I hadn't realized it's been so long since I posted - I don't know where my time goes but here it is, the end of January already! Very wintery here in southwest Saskatchewan with lots of snow but thankfully we are getting some relief from the extreme cold temperatures.
Today's card is my first as one of the new design team members at Eat Cake Graphics. I was so excited when Holly wrote and asked me to be part of the team because I've always loved the ECG stamps. Today's card was a good chance for me to dig out this stamp which I have had for ages (I like to let my stamps 'cure'). Anyway, I had a lot of fun colouring Finding the Right Tree (#8155-0) and the sentiment is perfect on so many levels! The paper is Glitz's French Kiss collection, the ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon and gem is from my stash.
Copics:
Mr. Piddles: E39, E37, E33
Trees: YG99, YG95, YG93
Snow: GG70, BG10
I added a little Aleenes Glitter Snow to the trees, Stickles Dry Fine Glitter for snow and used the Viva Pearl Pen for snowflakes. Finally, a little Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass distress ink was rubbed into the sky.
Challenges:
One Crazy Stamper - Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Tie Up Your Loose Ends (use a bow)
Drunken Stampers - All that Glitters
Fussy & Fancy - Circles
