Winter Memories Mojo 259

Yes, I know that Fall has just begun.  However, we stampers start thinking about Christmas this time of year.  Today was my first Christmas Card class and I'm so excited to share one of the cards we made.  There are 2 more that I will share later this week.

The card features the Winter Memories stamp set.  In the background, you'll see that I embossed the card stock with the Big Shot and the Lacy Brocade embossing folder.  I also used one half of a die cut doily and a panel of Candlelight Designer Series Paper.

For the main image, I sponged Champagne Mist shimmer paint onto Very Vanilla card stock.  Once it was dry, I stamped the skate image in Early Espresso ink and colored parts of it with Cherry Cobbler and Lucky Limeade markers.  It's hard to tell in the photo, but this panel has a shimmery, marbled, vintage look.

I used an Early Espresso marker to ink up the "Warm Winter Wishes" greeting, omitting the warm so that it would fit on the Bitty Banners framelit.  The card is tied up with Crumb Cake taffeta ribbon and a round designer ribbon slide.
