Hello & Happy New Year my crafty friends! It has been a while since I last posted and I apologize. With all the craziness of the Holidays and New Year and the typical everyday life happenings going on, life just got a bit crazy here for me. But, I am back and ready to get crafty again for the New Year.
It has been bitterly cold here on the East Coast lately. We had a blizzard this past week and with it being so frigid and miserable out, it has given me plenty of time to stay warm indoors and craft...YAY!!!
Today, I am sharing a card I created using the oh so adorable, "Winter Fuzzy Mouse" file from KaDoodle Bug Designs.
I needed to create some cute Winter cards and thought this file would be perfect. My paper piecing was created using Bazzill Cardstock. For his hat and scarf, I used cardstock from the "Sugar Shoppe" 6x6 paper pad from Doodlebug Design Inc. All pieces were cut using my Cricut Explore and were then inked using Tim Holtz Distress Inks.
The base of my card measures 4.5" x 6.25" (A6) and was made using 110lb. ReCollections White Cardstock. The patterned paper is again, from the "Sugar Shoppe" 6x6 paper pad from Doodlebug Designs Inc.
To create my "hills of snow", I used the "Stitched Scallop Dies" from Craftin Desert Divas. I also used the Craftin Desert Divas Stamp Set: "Winter Cheer" for my sentiment, which was stamped onto the bottom of the card using Versamark Ink and heat embossed with silver embossing powder from Hero Arts.
To finish off this card, I added Stickles to the snowflake that my adorable little mouse is holding. I also added some "Shimmer" sequins from Craftin Desert Divas, some beads of Nuvo Crystal Glaze and using my Posca white paint pen, added small dots throughout the background to add to my look of falling snow.
