I created an extra project this week to help out our fabulous Team Leader
Choccy and used this gorgeous image Festive Friends by Sylvie Stamps. I adore
animals and was drawn to this fun image of a girl playing dress up with her
faithful companion.
I coloured the image with Promakers and Flexmarkers. I added some puffy
snow but instead of puffing it up I sprinkles iridescent glitter on it. I also
used some stickles glitter to add some more depth to the snowdrifts and some
gently falling snowflakes in the background.
The card base is covered with a sparkly paper from Craftwork Cards and
then I used a snowflake paper from DCWV. The paper is snippet from a 6” square
pad and was just a little bit too small for the width so I cut it in 2 pieces
as I was planning to put a contrast strip in there anyway. This is just a leftover
snippet of striped paper from the same pack, edge with a Martha Stewart punch
and some sheer blue and silver ribbon over the top. To finish I added a tag
from Dovecraft embellished with some peel offs and Bakers Twine
