Winter Fun



It's Time for a Crafty Ho Challenge


February 20 - 26


Theme: Photo Inspiration and OPTIONAL Sketch



Here's my card:




Here's the Photo to inspire us:







Crafters can use anything they want from the photo to inspire their creation. For my card, I used with the color blue and the snow.



The optional sketch:



Obviously, I tweaked the sketch for my own creation. ;)


The three trees replace the three vertical bars. The snowman, though somewhat round, is not a circle/oval. I also went with a 5 1/2" square card instead of a rectangular one.


The following picture shows some of the layers. I used four layers of torn white paper, to represent the snowy hillside. I also popped the snowman and his snowballs up off the surface of the card.






Images: A Chemistry with Paper Winter Fun
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black and Brown, Versafine Onyx Black, and Copic markers
Cardstock: Stampin' UP! Bashful Blue and all others from my scrap file
