Guest Designer for Christmas Craft Creations September Challenge - Sketch


Hello there!   I’m here with another guest designer (GD) post today and I’m delighted to be back at Christmas Craft Creations (CCC) for their September sketch challenge.


I took creative liberties and flipped the sketch to accommodate the direction the critters from Ready, Set, Snow by My Favorite Things (MFT) are facing.  If you really wanted to stick to the sketch, you could always mirror image stamp the images. 😉  Anyway, here’s my card.


The snowboarding critters were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Xpress It cardstock, coloured with Copic markers and die cut out with the coordinating dies.  The spray of snow was stamped with Memento London Fog ink then die cut out with its matching die as well.  


The sentiment from MFT Bitty Holiday Wishes was heat embossed on black cardstock with white embossing powder then trimmed to a strip.  The background piece is pattern paper from the gorgeous Whimsy Stamps (WS) Blurry Flurries paper pack.  It was die cut with the Wrapped Stitch Rectangle die from Memory Box.  Assembled the scene onto it and it was done!

Need more inspiration to join the challenge?  Head over to the challenge blog post HERE to check out what the design team have created.  Thank you for stopping by.

Awesome! Those three friends are having a blast and with the pattern paper it all came together like it was meant for each other, I can see the swirl of snow dust flying behind them as they swish down the slopes.
You always amaze and inspire my friend! If only I could grow up to be like you!*wink Heart Hugs, Colleen

This is awesome! What a great way to use that DP. I was sure you created the background yourself. Now I think I need this paper pad... ;) Thank you for the inspiration! xx
