Toasty Mittens and Frosty Friends
>> Wednesday, January 4, 2017
Today, I have another frosty card - can you tell that I am looking forward to some colder weather?
I started this card out by dipping some white card stock into a mixture of blue inks and water and letting it dry. This is one of my favorite ways to do a background and it is super easy. I had a few places that I didn't like so I stamped the Interlocking Snow Background with Versamark and embossed the images with white embossing powder. This gave it a frosty feel which is what I wanted in the first place so I am glad I had some bad spots on the panel.
I added in the new Winter Wonder Words Greeting and two mittens off the new Raised Mittens Skip Winter image to a separate panel. I colored up the mittens using SU! Alcohol markers and sponged around them with some distress ink.
The card needed something else so I added three little Skippy the Penguins (aren't they adorable?). I just got this tiny little stamp and see a bunch of ways that I can use it.
Stay warm and many hugz!

Adorable Nancy!! Your wonderful background reminds me of a warm, toasty blanket - and those penguins are the perfect addition!
Nancy your background is fabulous. And i love the added mittens.
I love the pop of red the mittens add...So fun! And those penguins waddling off on the bottom of the panel just make me smile :) Perfect addition to this winter card!
Wonderful card, Nancy. I love the pop of red on this!!
Awesome bg, Nancy! The wintry blues are perfect w/ the white snowflakes. Great idea to use the mittens from the other image & your penguin parade is adorable.
