WINTER MEMORIES - REMARKABLE STAMP OF THE MONTH BLOG TOUR

Thanks for joining me today for the REMARKABLE STAMP OF THE MONTH blog tour.  We have some really nifty WINTER MEMORIES samples for you today!  Here are my offerings for the blog tour.  The first is a Z-Fold Card using the Be of Good Cheer dsp.

I love this stamp set.  It is so versatile for the upcoming winter holidays.  It's great for Christmas and New Years - but look at other possibilities - do you skate?  Do you love the snow?  I can't wait to use this in my scrapbooking.

As you begin to open this card, you see how the message behind the picture in the front starts to show.  I did some water coloring with my aqua painter and ink pads which you can get FREE this month from SU!

This view of the card from above, shows more of how the z-fold works.

You can also get a good idea of how I accented the water color with dazzling diamonds glitter by SU! and then I also added some flocking I had in my stash, which makes this looks like real snow.

Here's a much closer look of the snow and the water coloring.  I'm really excited about water coloring. You could also use your pencils or SU! stampinwrite markers to color.

Here's the inside of the card...

The inside sentiment comes with this stamp set as shown below.

This is really a fabulous set and I'm so glad I have it.

Here's my second card using this set.

This card is somewhat different in that I only took two elements from the set.  The first is the bird that I water colored as the cardinal in the pines.  These trees are stamped using the SU! stamp set LOVELY AS A TREE.  That's got to be one of my favorite stamp sets.  I stamped the trees and the bird and colored them, then added crystal effects and shimmer paint.  The trees look like they have freshly fallen snow on them.

These are close ups of parts of this card.  I embossed the sentiment WARM WINTER WISHES with SU! gold embossing powder.  The card stock was dry embossed using my SU! BIG SHOT.
