Pink Winter Wishes!!



Well it's the first snowfall of the season, here in cold Southwestern Ontario, so it's seems the perfect day to post this card!!! I had the morning off from work yesterday so I spent the day playing with some adorable new High Hopes stamps!! Nothin' like new rubbah, I always say!!!

This new snowperson stamp is called Snowlady Surprise and I just think she is super cute!! I knew that I wanted to use lots of pink on this one because I got this new little tin of frosted pink flowers and snowflakes from Prima called Heavenly Pink!

I started off with Julee's Mojo Monday sketch for this week and the patterned paper, which is by Around the Block and looks kinda like a pink and green wintery day! I stamped the Snowlady on watercolour paper in Archival Versafine Black Onyx ink and used my SU markers to colour her in. The main colours are Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose and then I used Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue on the pressie! Then I used a Prismacolor marker in 20% grey to shade around all the white snow on her body and I drew in the ground . The round portion in the corner is PIP cardstock cut using the CM cutting system and I used some of the pretty snowflakes from the Winter Wonder set by Verve Visual. I just love these gorgeous snowflakes. Then I stamped the High Hopes sentiment and shaded in grey around the left side of the letters and added some pink snowflakes. I matted the main image in Certainly Celery and Regal Rose and the card base is, of course, Regal Rose. I tied some pink taffeta ribbon by SU around the quarter circle, then added some Diamond Stickles in the centers of each of the stamped snowflakes. I pop dotted the sentiment and added two of the lovely paper, sparkly snowflakes and there she is!!! A pink Snowlady!!!

I've had some great entries for the 'Dirty Challenge'!! Don't forget to play along...you have until Sunday at noon!!
