Snow Princess


Colors : Watermelon, Bubblegum, Orchard Bouquet, Black, White Daisy

Stamps : Glistening Snow, Princess, Snow Friends, Ho Ho Ho, Seasonal Thoughts

Accents : Rhinestones, Stickles Crystal, Liquid Glass, Black Organdy, White Daisy ink, cuttlebug embossing (snowflake), pop dots

I feel so bad. I totally forgot that tomorrow we are celebrating Caitie's birthday (it's not until next Saturday but this is when family was available). So I've been frantically trying to put this together before I go to bed since I KNOW I won't get the chance to tomorrow before the party. The liquid glass and stickles are even still wet in the photo because I'm pretty sure I'll forget to take a picture if I wait until tomorrow when it's dry. I used the same sketch as the last card. I wasn't really feeling very creative with a design and decided the sketch was so cute that it doesn't hurt to use it again in almost the exact same way lol. Lots of fun glitter on this one. I think I did a little better controlling the stickles but I from now on it'll probably be a strictly 'big coverage' glitter item. Detail glitter I think I'm still better off with the prisma and a glue pen. I glittered her crown, buttons, the i in princess, and all the way around the outside rim of the P circle. Liquid glass was put on the heart in her crown, the heart she's holding, and on the center P. I embossed white daisy CS then sponged lightly over with bubblegum to make the snowflakes pop. It was a lot of fun to make this card since the colors are so non traditional for snow. And I LOVED making the crown for the little snow girl (I added eyelashes so that she was a girl instead of a snow man).

Thanks ladies!! And nope, I don't mind at all if you save my stuff for personal use :D

Karen, I wish I had Serendipity!! LOL I'm a 'hobbyist' so I won't be putting in my order for it until the 18th with the rest of my Dec order so I can get the discount. Gotta stretch every dollar this time of year!! lol Of course that means I have to wait until almost Jan before I can play with it, but I can be patient ^_^ Besides, I still have so much other product to use up, lol!

Oh, this is a beautiful card. I love all the pinks, and that snowman is too, too cute! I am guessing these are CTMH stamp sets? Wow, I have to check these out too. I mostly buy Stampin' Up with some Penny Black and House Mouse thrown in the mix. Stop by my blog and say "Hi" sometime. Kel
