It's my pleasure to host this week's Inspiration Challenge & we're heading over to The Spruce! There's a lot to see there & I was inspired by THIS. Iâm also a knitter so the knitting crafts really appeal to me. And it reminded me of this fun winter set.
For my winter wear card, I stamped the set onto watercolor paper using the Versaclair ink then used watercolors & a couple of blue & teal Tombow markers to color them. I kept it very light & monochromatic & didnât entirely color them in. When die cutting it, I used my out of the box technique. The Winter word was die cut once out of the w/c paper & once out of the dp & stacked a little off to give it some depth.
Thanks so much for looking. Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff

What a feast for the eyes, Julie. The textures here from the EF knit to the stitched on the knitted garments is wonderful! Love those icy blue greens. Thanks for the site...I've set my eyes on several rooms....

What a beauty, Julie. I love the blues/teal. It looks so wintry. I have used your out of the box technique before and it is great.

Scrumptious colors! The embossed knit bg is the perfect pairing to the image and gives this card a cozy feel. Such wonderful visual texture to this beautiful card.
