So enthralled I was with my speckled snow, I wanted to try it out on some dark blue paper. Nice, I thought, but now what? I ended up paper-piecing my snowman on a speckled/snowy Crystal Blue background. I used a white gel pen to color in the stamped snowflakes and to finish it off, added some homemade Flower Soft. Simple and fun.
Materials & Tools: White Daisy, Moonstruck, Crystal Blue and Cranberry cardstock; Black and White Pigment ink pad; Cranberry, Orange, Baby Pink, and Grey Wool markers; Snow Friends stamp set; Retired Speckled Background stamp; White gel pen; Styrofoam (faux Flower Soft)
How was your day? I went to work late and came home early. I’m still feeling a little punk. A good night’s sleep will help, I’m sure. Prior to crawling between the sheets, I’m going to see what I can make happen in my corner. Enjoy the evening, and like always, thanks for stopping by!

VavavaVOOM!! What a fantastic bunch of cards you have cranked out over the last few days! How did you do that great snow background? LOVE the one with the baby cardinal. Inquiring minds.....
Love the "snowing" effect! What a wonderful trick!
Sure hope you get to feeling better soon. Like the card.
NO fair you are teasing me with a retired stamp that I now want to own!!!! LOVE this card and if you paper pieced this it is done so perfectly you can't tell.
Hope you are all better Kathi.
Absolutely adorable! Love it!
Glad to see your mojo is flowing well, despite your body throwing you for a loop.
Have a wonderful day, my friend!
