Hi! I am so happy you stopped by and I wish I could offer you a cup of coffee, tea, or whatever, but since we are virtual, please get the treat of your choice and take a moment to relax as you see my card!
Today’s card is based on Inspired by Stamping’s beautiful inspiration photo and Joanna challenged us to use a gold/silver/blue color combo. Now, I just happen to love that combination of colors and immediately thought of making this card. I hope you enjoy!
The silver and gold papers are specialty papers from American Crafts, the light blue is from DCWV. The two embossed panels were made using white cardstock and first sprayed with blue Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist. I then embossed the larger panel with an Inkadinkado flourish background stamp and silver embossing powder and used DI around the edges. I then sprayed again with the blue and added gold Glimmer Mist. The smaller panel is embossed with Christmas ornaments from Rubber Stamp Tapestry and a mixture of silver and gold embossing powders. The edge is punched with a Martha Stewart border punch, as is the light blue panel. The silver snowflakes are from a Martha Stewart punch and the ribbon & lace are from RRR.
The main stamp is called Halloween Magic from Stampendous. I just love to color her to fit the season and this time she is an ice princess lol. She is colored with Copics and Gelly Roll pens. Lastly, I fussy cut her and attached her over the blue embossed panel.
Here is Joanna’s gorgeous inspiration photo and the link to the Inspired by Stamping challenge #32
