Sending Joy :)

After a long time, Shabby chic layered card from me...This time from Winter wonderland :)

Bought few So suzy stamps (SSS)..must say i love those for their cute font sentiments and the lovely image sentiments.



Now onto card :)

Took 15cm square top fold card. Matted with 2 layers.

To the first layer stamped Kaisercraft wood stamp using Toffee crunch momento ink and sponged their edges using Rich cocoa momento ink. Then using scissors, ran it around the edges of the card to give a distressed look.

The next layer is prepared using embossing paste on a stencil and heat embossed using wow nice blue glitter Ep . It wasnt that visible here as i topped up with a piece of biege lace at one end, Cheerylynn Florish diecut at another corner and lastly a cheese cloth for all that shabby look.

The image is stamped on a piece of watercolor paper and using Archival black stamped SSS winter girl and masked her and stamped the christmas trees (SSS) around her. And keeping the mask, smooshed versamark ink below her to create a snowbank sort of and heat embossed using Ranger's white opaque Ep.


I just water colored her using Tchibo aquarelle pencil and using stickles diamond traced the snowbank and sprinkled POP white microbeads . And using Colorbox white frost sponged lightly on and around trees and sprinkled with Ranger's white opaque Ep and heat embossed.

Brushed wink of stella clear on top and side of card, added wow nice blue Ep and heat embossed it for that little extra shine and glam.

Those icicles are made using Hot glue gun and to it added perfect pearls powder using water. Few vellum snowflakes diecuts added with pearls centre and those are highlighted using wink of stella clear glitter.


Added 2 corner diecuts in silver cs and a sentiment banner which are sponged lightly at corners using toffee crunch to finish off the card. Except the first layers, all layers are popped up using foam adhesives.
