Welcome to the second half of the current Inky Paws Challenge.
Here's the challenge sketch for you to check out.
This sketch is so much fun, but I might have gone
overboard with this one.
This card starts with the background.
Using the Petite
Snow Stencil and some texture paste on white cardstock.
When that was dry, I taped off some lines with blue tape
and
applied Black Soot Distress Ink over the top of it
The first set off “stripes” I dried with a heat gun and
then
taped off the center to create the smaller stripes.
Holding my breath for this part, I inked in the center
part of my stripes.
With the background done and drying, I turned my
attention to tag on the front of the card.
The background “hills” is vanilla card stock and the Sky Boarders Die Set.
Die cut out two “hills” and layered the “hills” on top of
each other over some white cardstock.
I used the tag from the Fancy
Edges Tag Die Set, die cut everything out together.
Attach those “hills” directly onto the tag, leaving a
little space in between for my trees.
The trees come next, using the Forest Scene Builder Die Set.
Using three of my favorite bright colors stamped out the
trees,
die cut them out and attach them to the front of the tag.
Time to add the snowman. He comes from the Snow Globe Scenes Stamp Set.
Keeping with bright color theme, I chose red for the scarf.
Finally, I stamped the sentiment from the
Sentiments of the Season Stamp Set on
the front of the tag.
The only thing left to do is attached the tag to the
front of card.
For some flair, I added Nuevo Drops to the trees and the background
behind the snowman.
YEP! There is a
lot going on this card but…
It’s just SO MUCH FUN to mix and match dies and stamps
up.
I hope this inspires you to MIX IT UP.
Don’t forget to link up your project using the link in

Thanks for stopping by.
Have a wonderful holiday.
