I cut a mask for the top of the cardstock and inked it up with Broken China Distress Oxide Ink. Is it not amazing how solid you can get that colour on Kraft cardstock! I did create a bit of a shadow using a grey coloured pencil. The sentiment comes from the same stamp set as the image!

I would like to enter this card in Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps Wonderful Wednesday Challenge.

Hey everyone! Today I have here with a winter card featuring Wee Stamps Candle Light! You can pick this awesome snow man up in rubber here, or in digital form here.

Wee Stamps Mr Frosty 1.jpg

I coloured him up with my Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils. Unfortunately I did it while on a trip to Saskatoon and didn’t record the colours that were used. The paper I used was Fabriano Artistico 140lbs Hotpress Watercolour paper.

I used some of the paper from my recent Haul from Blue Fern Studio, the fence die is from La La Land crafts and the corner die is from LDRS Creative. I added a little twine around the image to finish off the front of this card.

Hey everyone! Jessie here to share with you my latest C.C. Designs make using the 4 Seasons Boys and 4 Seasons Girls stamps! I love how you get so much bang for buck with these two sets, literally, you can use these all year round! I stamped these out and coloured them up using the no lines colouring technique.
