Hi friends and happy New Year to you! I enjoyed a wonderful long
weekend with crafting with my mom, who so graciously bought me a pack of
12x12" Stamperia Arctic Antarctic scrapbook paper for our cardmaking day together. We spent New Year's Day and the day after working together on these and I wanted to share the results with you.
We specifically chose the winter elements for our cards, saving the whales for another summer session, in which we hope to make a small book.
It's always hard to show the dimension on collage style cards through a photo, but here is a close up so you can see those wonderful tatty layers, covered in Stampendous Shaved Ice. The trick is to dip a paint brush into matte Mod Podge, then dip into the "snow" and brush onto your pieces.
These words are from my free printable Christmas word collection found on THIS post.
I hope these cards having inspired you to stay creative this winter. This fall my mom and I made some cards with the Stamperia 8x8" Forest Paper Pack and I never got around to sharing them, so I will try to add a new post with those soon. Wishing a blessed 2021 my friends! Hugs, Autumn
