After spending a couple of days doing classes and shopping at the SENZ Craft Expo, I have been inspired.... so decided I better get a move on with making a Snowman card... using a few of my new purchases.
I found my image on a free image site on the internet. I love how cute and happy this snowman is. I printed in out a a size that would fit an A2 US card. I fussy cut around the image. Next was my background. I used my new Distress Oxide inks in Tumbled Glass and Broken China blended together. Then I die cut with a Gina K die from Master Layout #2. Next step was to use my new snowflake stencil from Montarga ( a NZ company) I used Nuvo Glimmer paste to add some sparkly snowflakes. My final step was to add the die cut sentiment (Carta Bella) - another new purchase. I found a lovely plaid paper to mat behind my panel and added to a white base.
It's been an awesome weekend and I've still got so much new stuff to play with - can't wait to find time to play.
