Out of Season

It’s time for a new challenge at Loves Rubberstamps Challenge Blog and this week we’d like you to create something….

‘Out of Season’.

This means we want you to create a card/project that is not related to the upcoming event in the short months to come or season.
(i.e. create a Valentine’s Day, Easter, Christmas, NY, etc.)

Our sponsor for this challenge is….

Milk-n-Coffee Stamps.

I decided I would make a Christmas card using one of Bildmalarna’s gorgeous stamp images called Snowman Hugs.

I have stamped my image onto Neenah Solar White card and coloured with my Copic Markers.

The colours I’ve used are: Skin – E11, E00, E000, E0000, R20 & R30; Hair – E44, E43, E42, E40; Snowman – BG0000, C00, YR18, YR16, YR14, YR12, G29, G28, G24, G21, G20; Clothes – BV25, BV23, BV20; Boots & Scarf – C8, C6, C4, C2, C00; Berries – R46, R43.

The pretty paper is from Bildmalarna and is called Frosty Christmas – Snow Angels. I added some Liquid Applique to my image to create some fluffy bits to the hat and jacket. I’ve use some Doohickey dies – Spruce and Large Cozy Snowflake to embellish my card and I have bordered my card using the Cherish ‘Around the Page’ Punch from Martha Stewart.

Here’s another picture.
