I’m not pushing for this white stuff just yet! But….
Our challenge this week at The Paper Players is just that: Winter Wonderland, so I had a lot of fun creating this blustery scene for my Design Team Inspiration Card.
For this card, I simply stamped the images from Recollections Winter Wonderland Clear Stamp Set onto watercolor paper. I then painted some blustery cold snow with turquoise blue watercolor paint and some other small details like the scarf, carrot nose, stars and a teensy bit of shading. While the blue paint was still a bit wet, I sprinkled on some silver embossing powder and heat set it. I then added a little silver bow and matted it in matching SU Tempting Turquoise card stock and adhered all to SU Pumpkin Pie orange card stock. I added a few turquoise snowflakes to the inside also. I love how blue and orange look together, and now I have a card ready to send to someone soon.
Hope you will join in on the Winter Wonderland cardmaking fun at The Paper Players this week!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Hopefully, it won’t snow too much here this winter but after that little snowstorm I’m not holding my breath.

Oh, I forgot to say, we have already have had a snowstorm here. It was snowing on November 2! That is VERY unusual for this area. It was coming down hard and the flakes were huge! It didn’t stick though because the ground was too warm.
