Snowone Like You

This week at Just Us Girls Challenge #616 Photo Inspiration Week the picture couldn't be cuter!! So I got busy and made a snow couple juggling snowballs together!





I inked blended a few blues together on a white 5 1/4" x 4" panel, then stenciled one of the blue inks here and there with the My Favorite Things Full of Heart stencil. Next, I used Simon Says Stamp Intense Black ink to stamp, then die cut, the Happy Snowman twice. I also stamped one scarf in red, added a little shadow with a grey Copic marker to the snow people, and colored their noses and buttons with Stampin' Up! Stampin' Write markers. I added a bow for the girl with baker's twine.

I cut snow drifts with Simon Says Stamp Drifting Stitches Borders dies and layered them on the bottom of the inked panel to start a snowy scene. I happened to see a sample of this snowman stamp used with a pile of extra snowballs and decided to CASE that idea. Then I added more snowballs for the couple to juggle to each other. I used a sentiment from Pretty Pink Posh's Winter Wonderland stamp set, popped up the panel on a white A2 card base, and decided that the card was complete!

Stop by to see all the inspiration on our blog and join in the fun!
