Lovely Decorating Snowman

This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 558 - White Silhouettes where I stamped my tree in versamark then added white embossing powder and heat set it. This is also for today's CAS349 - Time To Hibernate and for this I inked up my Inky Antics "Decorating Snowman" set and stamped the image in momento tuxedo black once on the white card base and once on white paper which I cut out and used as a mask. After my images where the way I wanted I began sponging at the bottom with soft sky, then pool party then coastal cabana at the top. I love these 3 colors together. I colored the snowman image with copics BG10, 11, 13, & 15, R13 & 15, Y02, and YR23.

The inside sentiment and the tree on the envelope were stamped in coastal cabana. Hope you like it.

Snowman Christmas Gift Holder

This is for today's COLOR CHALLENGE # 546 - Rich Cucumber Twist, Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 549 - Front Fold Up Card and Monday's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 340 - Christmas holiday gifts. Well these front fold up cards are so quick and easy to make, Anne I am loving them. I have a granddaughter that thinks purple is the only true color so I made this with her in mind today. I think I will slip a folded bill in the gift section. I used a new to me set from Inky Antics - Decorated Snownman and stamped in black then colored with copics V04, V06, YG09, YR07. Stamped the sentiment above the hand and cut and matted on cucumber crush for the top part of the front. I used some coordinating dp for the folded sections except on the 2nd panel where I created a gift section.

I stamped the envelope and colored them with copics as well. Hope you like it and I know she will if I put some green in with that purple. LOL.
