I had so much fun taking the Snowball Fight class with Jenn Shurkus this weekend! Here is one of the cards we made. Though these are winter cards that could be used throughout the season, I think I will be using them as Christmas cards - if I can bear to give them away :)!
We started out by ink blending a background with some distress oxide ink: Wilted Violet + Salvaged Patina. Then, we did some ink smooshing with Salvaged Patina. I didn't have the stitched den dies so I just substituted something similar I had from Studio Katia.
Colouring up these little mice was so much fun and I loved that I could follow all of the colouring guide and tips with my Tombow markers.
I used my Wink of Stella pen to add in some subtle glitter accents to all of my critters and snow.
I popped some elements, along with the sentiment, onto foam squares and strips to give some dimension. The tiny sentiments in this set are so fun to add in!
Probably my favourite part of this card is all of the chunky glitter accents! I am LOVING it! Especially on those stitched letters...I have to do this some more!
