New Create A Smile Stamps Challenge!

Happy Wednesday and welcome back! It's the start of a new challenge over on the Create A Smile Stamps Challenge Blog! And this week, it's a sketch challenge!


CAS has the cutest winter/christmas stamps and the snowmen are some of my favourite images!  I used the Cool Buddies set for my card today.  This set was recently "brought back" and I'm so happy it was!!


I created the background by white heat embossing some of the snowflake images from the set onto a panel of light blue cardstock.  I added Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink to the edges to give it a perfectly blended look. I love using this "cheater method" to achieve almost perfect results!


I stamped, coloured and fussy cut this cute snow dude and popped him up over a snowbank cut with a die I had in my stash.  The speech bubble comes from the Bujo Basics set and fit the sentiment perfectly!

You may notice the embossed lines on the card base. Well, this started out as a mistake as I accidentally scored the card base in the wrong spot. So, I went with it and scored every half inch and it turned out okay!


A few sequins and a glossy carrot nose finish off this card. I hope you found some inspiration here today and will play along with us. 

Remember, up for grabs is a €25 gift certificate to the Create A Smile Stamps online shop!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!

Laurie
