Stamp With Peggy

Sorry — I missed a day of posting — life happened.  Don't worry we'll catch up.  So now we are on to Project 4 — only one project left after this — well maybe a bonus project too.

Project 4 was this beautiful framed art piece.

We used the Watercolor Winter Card Kit from the Holiday Catalog.  This kit was designed to make 20 cards — 5 each of 4 different designs.  We decided to try something different than what the kit was intended for.

For this framed piece of art we started with an 8" x 8" piece of Pool Party cardstock.  We used the "snow blotches" from Gorgeous Grunge with Whisper White ink to create a blizzard.  We added torn strips of Whisper White cardstock for the snow hills — a little glue and Dazzling Diamonds make it sparkle like snow.  The sled comes in the kit pre-cut so we used a Cherry Cobbler marker to color it red.  The trees are in the kit too so of course we added more snow sparkle with Dazzling Diamonds.  The fence is made my sponging a woodgrain embossed white cardstock that comes in the kit with Soft Suede ink and cutting the cardstock into 1/2" strips — trim the tops to a point and adhering to look like a fence.  The letters are also pre-cut in the kit so a little more "snow", add a snowflake charm embellishment to the banner and little white snowflakes from the sequins package and you are done with this little beauty.

Wait until tomorrow when you see what else we did with items from this kit — wow, what a value this kit is.

See you tomorrow.
