This is one of the oldest stamps in my collection (Stampington & Company from 1997) ... and I still love it. I stamped it in white ink on watercolor paper and clear-embossed.
Next I added two shades of blue Color Burst powders onto wet watercolor paper with just a little additional water spray, so it stayed a bit powdery-looking on the paper. I wanted the sprays of inky powder to look like sprays of snow flying into the air. The colors are perfect for the color challenge at Just Us Girls.
I finished with a Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside die cut from white cardstock, which has a faux stitching border. Sentiment is from Avery Elle Simply Said.
I'm also joining Anything Goes at the Male Room.
