snow much thanks...

Hey there!  Hope you had a great week!  I'm popping in with a thank you card that I made with the super fun Simon Says Stamp January card kit called Snow Much.   I used the layout from Freshly Made Sketches for my card so I will be posting it there, as well as over at Inspired By challenge which just so happens to be about snowmen!   And since I am using new products for my card I will be adding it to the gallery at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.   I started by stamping one of the snowmen from the set on white cardstock with VersaFine CLAIR Nocturne ink and then colored him with Prisma color pencils.  Once I was done I trimmed him out.  I die cut papers that are from with AJVD Stitched Dot Rectangle dies and layered them on a light blue cardstock base (cardstock from the kit).  The sentiment was stamped on the top rectangle using VersaFine CLAIR Twilight ink.  Strips of coordinating cardstock were adhered to the card front.  I coiled a length of silver thread on the strips and then adhered the snowman on top using foam tape.


Hope you have a wonderful day!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  Simon Says Stamp light blue, MFT white; Patterned paper: Echo Park; Stamps:  Simon Says Stamp; Dies:  A Jillian Vance Design; Ink:  VersaFine CLAIR; DMC silver thread; Prisma Color pencils
