Card number two from spending the day in the craft room is this holiday card for another of my nieces. Sorry, the photo's a bit wonky, but it's sparkly, isn't it? =)
This image is Toby from the
StampFairy - and Gerda happens to be having a 50% off sale right now! I used Copics again - love the Sketch brush tip! - and used a white paint pen to add a bit of accent to the ends of Toby's scarf. Smooch spritz on a white textured cardstock created the base. The snowy background is from Nitwits new Woodland Wishes with some torn white cardstock glittered up with Stickles for the snow-covered ground. Again I've used Martha Stewart punches for the snowflakes dotted here and there. I made my own sentiment on the computer, cut it out with a deckled oval Nestie before glittering the edge. Toby is up on foam dots and his snowball is glittered to death! LOL I also added a few Liquid Pearl dots to accent the Aspen punched border and the larger snowflake. A bit of Offray rickrack in baby blue hid the border seam nicely.
This one was taken without flash so it's a little blurry, but it shows off all that sparkly snow! =)
And here's a close-up of Toby...
So, off this goes into the box to be mailed out on Monday... and best of all, this snowball won't melt on the way to Arizona. =)
