I was born in Denver, lived there for almost 40 years before moving to California. I remember those cold and snowy days. Sort of miss them.......NOT! If I want snow here I just drive an hour to the mountains. hehe......my card...
This card was probably one of the hardest ones to do. All white is not in my vocabulary. In fact as soon as I finish this post I am slapping some color on that baby! hehe
I gessoed a some card stock, after it dried I used a stencil and some light molding paste for the squares with a few tiny hearts. Then I mixed some ivory paint with some acrylic glazing liquid and brushed it over top. Waited about 30 seconds then took a baby wipe and rubbed off some of the paint.
Sprayed on some white dylusion ink for the snow, plus splattered some white acrylic paint for more snow cause when it snows in Colorado it just keeps snowing.
Well, that's my take on the TLC today. Can't wait to doodle and color this card. hehe.....TFL :0)

This looks like some snowy ice cubes or some marshmallows for the hot chocolate you'd be drinking if you were inside watching a snow storm. It's brilliant! Thanks for leaving your comfort zone today..this is wonderful!

Love your take on the view on a snowy day. We don't get much snow only dreary WET weather. But I have to say the view from my window is not quite this bleak. It does make a great geometrical design though!

Yes artsy indeed! I think it's the view out of the window panes when it has been snowing for about three days! Snowed In!
Great card. Would love to see it when the snow has melted away and some color is showing the the window panes.
