So today we have a GREAT sketch challenge for you! I just LOVE the incolors so paired up some of the new ones with one of the old ones and here is what you get. The base of the card is Pool Party. I stamped the little round snowman using StazOn Jet Black on a piece of Watercolor paper and colored using Pool Party, Island Indigo, Wisteria Wonder and Blushing Bride markers and a blender pen. I added this to the card front, added a piece of Island Indigo, run through the Snowburst Embossing Folder along the bottom and a piece of the Wisteria Wonder dsp from the Flirtatious dsp (with a scallop edge Wisteria Wonder strip behind it) along the side. I made a manner from Blushing Bride, stamped the greeting using StazOn Jet Black, added a Whisper White snowflake from the Northern Frost Decorative Strip with an Island Indigo Printed designer brad in the center. This is added to the card front using dimensionals. I finished off the snowman with some Dazzling Details for just a little sparkle!
Now it’s time to head over to Create with Connie and Mary to check out what the design team did with the challenge, sign up for the Create with Connie and Mary Occasions Edition 2012 while you can save $5 and join the fun!
Until next time…HAPPY STAMPIN’!

I see you were inspired by the colors in the sketch also! And how funny that both you and Debbie Currier would use the same exact stamps and sentiments! Twins! Cute card and perfect for winter…it’s the only snow I’m seeing right now!

I love your card Mary. I had just found the Create With Connie and Mary website and saw the sketch that I loved. The DT did a wonderful job with the sketch. Great blog and teamwork too!

Is that water colouring I see? Good for you! Love the colours you chose on this one, Mary.

I like how you layered the Blushing Bride to offset all the other colors, everything just “pops”!
