Then need to start on my next orders.
Well the Autumn season is upon us, but some days it feels like Winter. Our temperatures this past week and the coming couple of weeks between 45 - 50 (8-10C) as the high but early mornings are around freezing. Right now it is 34F or 1C and the winds are from the north which makes it feel even colder. I love the fall with the cooler days and the change of colours, but not ready for these frigid temps! Brrrrrr..... LOL.
Okay lets get on with my card. I'm using the snowman image from Purdy Stamps. This is an oldie, but I bring them out every few years because they are just too darn cute not to use wouldn't you say?
I used prismacolour pencils and blended with gamsol. I then sponged some clouds using MFT's cloud stencil and PTI aqua mist and a bit along bottom for a bit of colour in the snow.
For the papers I used MME - Sugar Plum. To create the frame I used MFT stitched rectangle frames.
I decided to add some snowflakes under the top of the frame for some added detail - using Simon Says - snowflake border die.
To finish off I added some white flock on the pom-pom, TH distress glitter, and a little tag using Penny Black holiday snippets, then added a aqua silk bow.
I changed out my bird picture at the top. This is an American Redstart - Female. She was in our backyard for a few days and I was very persistent in capturing a photo of her. It took I while but it happened!
I appreciate your visit today, I'll be back in a few days, see you then.
