Let It Snow


I don't really want it to snow yet. I just think this stamp set it is so stinkin' cute! The base is whisper white. I wheeled white craft ink on Bashful Blue cardstock with the Snow jumbo wheel from the holiday mini catalogue. I stamped the main image with jet black stazon on whisper white. I colored in the stripes on the "S" with my real red marker. the "N" in Bashful Blue and the "W" in Certainly Celery. At the top of the main image are some icicles. Shelly Gardner showed this at convention. It's really easy and fun to do! You just lay piece of waxed paper down. You squirt a line of crystal effects the length you want. Then you pull down a line like an icicle every so often. Then sprinkle dazzling diamonds glitter over the whole thing. You will need to set it aside to dry for an hour or so. Once it is dry you can pour the excess glitter back into the bottle. Once it is completely dry you can just peel lit off the waxed paper. How cool is that? Then you can just cut it the length you need. Way fun!

The stamp set for the main image is Big on Holidays. The ribbon is the red gingham ribbon. That's as much as I can think about snow for now.
