Catching Snowflakes
Hello everyone! Welcome! This is Shanna here today from Caffeinated Craftiness with a wintery cards featuring the adorable new set from Trinity Stamp Company, Have an Ice Day.
I love winter cards! This card was no exception. I started by stamping my cute polar bear from the Have an Ice Day stamp set onto bristol cardstock and then watercolored him with my Zig real brush markers. I die cut him out with the coordinating dies and set him aside to work on my background.
I pulled a piece of plaid patterned paper from my stash, an old Recollections pad I believe, and stenciled over it with a snowflake stencil and Ranger texture paste. I love how this looked, the mixed media vibe makes me so happy! After that was dry, I layered up my image, and popped the polar bear up with foam tape.
My finishing touch was a trio of gemmed snowflake stickers, with the polar bear “catching” one! How cute is that!?!
As you can tell, I did not add a sentiment on the card….I couldn’t decide, so I thought I would let YOU! I created a poll in the Trinity stamps | imagination, inspiration, & conversation Facebook group and would truly love for you to head over there and vote for your favorite sentiment from the Season’s Greetings stamp set. After the poll closes, I will add the sentiment and post a new picture! Thanks for helping a girl through her creative block!
