I have a card made with a Stampin' Up! stamp that I had been coveting for a year. I finally found one on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. The snowman and the sentiment are from the Stitched Snowman set from 1995. I've colored him with Promarkers, embossed the sentiment and embellished with buttons, mini bells stickles.
This card follows the sketch at Christmas Stamping All Year Long and is also entered into the challenge for the week.

Emma Bear in her Winter Wonderland

Today I have a card that I've made to fit the requirements of three challenges. The digital stamp I have used is Emma Snow Scene from Karen's Doodles. As it happens, one of the challenges is from Karen's challenge blog. The challenge is to make your card all white, except for the image, which can be colored.

The next challenge is from Winter Wonderland. For this challenge there is a sketch to follow. The sketch involved several circles. Since patterned papers were pretty much out, I had to go with some texture. I've used the Cuttlebug snowflakes and Sizzix dots folders.

The third challenge is from Christmas Stamping All Year Long. The requirement for this challenge is to include some buttons and bows. I've added a few buttons to the circle cutout and a bow in the upper left corner. I also used the same ribbon around one of the circles.

Emma was colored with Promarkers, Prisma color pencils and stickles. The sentiment was computer generated, then ruffed up a little so it would stand out a bit. The background snowflake frame svg is by Monica's Creative Room.
