I have been loving the Winter Olympics ... so inspiring. It really makes me want to plan another trip to Canada ... so many beautiful vistas to explore. I needed a special masculine birthday card for someone who enjoys winter sports, so I used inspiration from the Olympics together with Get Sketchy Sketch #26. This is also for the Random Redhead Challenge at the Gingersnap Creations Blog to make a Birthday Greeting.
Papers are a combination from various Die Cut With a View collections. The Large Snowboarder from Stampington & Company is one of my favorite vintage images (1997). I added two rub-on sentiments and Crystal Ice Stickles glitter glue to add some sparkle to the flying snow.
Go For It!
