This is a card I made for the weekly challenge over at Mothers and Daughters Creations' blog. The design team had to create with a given set of supplies they were sent. For everyone else, it was a color challenge - to use Always Artichoke (or dark green), Sage Shadow (or light green) and Riding Hood Red (or similar red). http://mdcchallenges.blogspot.com/20...-or-color.html
I used Beate's Weekend Sketch (flipped to vertical) for my layout: Blogs at Splitcoaststampers
I stamped the snowman with Brown Stazon onto Naturals White CS and colored him with markers. I sponged lightly around him with Soft Sky then sponged the edges with Antique Linen DI. Added pearls to the corners and popped this panel up on foam tape. I stamped my sentiment with Always Artichoke Craft onto the DP and heat embossed with clear EP. I punched snowflakes with my MS punch and made them sparkly with Heat & Stick powder and Dazzling Diamonds then added pearls to the centers. Added Stickles for the falling snow and snow on the ground. A narrow red ribbon finished it.
I tried to keep my look similar to the MDC design team with the colors, style of DP, sparkly snowflakes and pearls. There were bonus points for using a gingerbread man, but I don't have one, so I went for the snowman.
Thanks to everyone at MDC for the fun challenge and Beate, for another great sketch!
