Winter Wishes

This was the sketch today on Splitcoast and worked perfectly for this cute Polar Bear rubber craft stamp from Janlynn, Stamps Happen. It's one of their new Winter images.

It's colored with Copics and white Painty pen on the hat trim.

I stamped the sentiment, also from Janlynn, in Red Pepper ink. The snowflakes have Sakura glitter pen on them. The cuttlebugged embossed background also has glitter pen on the snowflakes.

A quick, cute card!

Cowboys and Snowmen

Somewhat of an odd combination? Not really...they're just what I happened to use for today's Sketch Challenge on SCS *wink*

I needed a "guy" birthday card for a friend today. I just love this little cowboy from Inky Antics.
It's colored with Copics. For his chaps I used the blender pen and dotted it around to remove the color and give them some texture.

The hay bale was repeatedly stamped then airbrushed. The "leather looking" strip? That's a piece of an old belt I ran through the Cuttlebug!
I "dirtied" everything up by sponging Frayed Burlap distress ink around the edges.

This next card is a new Winter rubber stamp image from Janlynn. It's colored with Copics, masked and sponged with distress ink that was left on my dauber from a previous card... and Mudd Puddles Snow sand added under the snowman.

The sentiment is also a Stamps Happen image from Janlynn...I only inked up the the top portion of the greeting for this card, then used my white gel pen to highlight the word.
