Congrats to Stampinupconsultan for being this week's Chosen Stamper of the Week. I had fun looking at your cards and found this Inkpad Smash that I had never tried. Oh so easy and oh so effective! CAS_Inkpad_Smash_kab by stampinupconsultan at Splitcoaststampers
I did try it a few times to get it right and I found it to be easier with a mini ink pad to get just a small amount of ink onto the card and lightly press the ink on so not to get it to vibrant.
Another holiday card to add to my stash!

The imperfections of the smash technique ads to the interest in you bg. That chubby snowman is just adorable.

This card is absolutely charming—love how the Inkpad Smash technique adds such a playful texture to the background. The snowman steals the show with its cozy, whimsical vibe, and the soft color palette makes it feel like a warm winter hug. Perfect blend of creativity and seasonal cheer!
