Hi everyone! I love the color pink and had been wanting to create a pink Christmas card. My Pink Stamper gave me just the right opportunity to do so. Robyn’s challenge was to create a card with 2 shades of pink, 2 shades of blue, and black and this is what I came up with. I added a jingle bell to the hat.

My daughter came to me and asked me to make a card that she could send to a soldier overseas. Her Jr. High English class has a voluntary project to send cards to soldier and she wanted to participate. So, I let her pick the Cricut cut and then I designed the card with her.
I really wanted to give some new inking techniques a try, so I created this card using an embossing and inking technique to create my own paper.
- Using a Studio G snowflake stamp, I randomly stamped a white piece of cardstock using Versa Mark
- I then used fine white embossing power and a heat gun to set it
- Next, I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Broken China) with a Tim Holtz blender and inked the entire page, making darker and lighter areas. The ink will not adhere to the embossed snowflakes so they stay white.
- Finally, I sprayed the paper with Tattered Angels Glimer Mist (Dazzling Diamonds) to give it a frosty look.
I think it turned out awesome. I am entering it in the following challenges. Wish me luck!
- Peachy Keen - Create a card or LO using embossing & PK stamps if you have them
- Paper Cutz - Create a project with a snowman or snowflake on it with the colors of your choice
- Paper Play Time – Create a project with a snowman or snowmen
