This week I am featuring Lawn Fawn's adorable Winter Skies stamp set on my card.
I stamped the cute bears from this set onto X Press It copic blending card and coloured them with my copics.
To create my background I stamped Simon's Merry Christmas sentiment stamp onto Canson XL watercolor paper using Simon Says Stamps embossing ink pad and heat set it with gold embossing powder.
I blended Stormy Sky, Faded Jeans, Picked Raspberry & Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink pads, & Simon Says Stamp's White Pigment Ink Pad over my watercolor paper to create my night sky background.
I also stamped the adorable flying Santa from the Winter Skies stamp set above my sentiment stamp using Simon Says Stamp's Black Pigment Ink Pad and then added some flicks of watered down white Gesso to my background for that lovely falling snow effect.
Other supplies used -
Elizabeth Craft Designs double sided tape, Tonic Guillotine, Acrylic Blocks, Tonic Scissors, Aileens Tacky Glue, White Card Stock, Simply White Crystal Drops, Simon's Black Pigment Ink, Spellbinders A2 Curved Borders One dies, Simon Says Stamp White Glitter card stock.
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring our challenge with a $50 voucher for the fabulous
