Let it Snow - Loves Rubber Stamps GDT

Good Morning Blogging Friends,

Today I am back with another challenge as a Guest Design Team Member for Loves Rubberstamps Challenges.  The sponsor this week for Loves Rubberstamps is Kenny K.

Ok, let's get to the challenge, it is Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! - Create a Winter Scene with a Snow feature.   This one stumped me for a while.  I think I was just thinking way to hard.  Then I decided to use Kenny K's Ice Skate Kate.  I have never colored an image with this type of hair, so it was a new challenge for me.  I had to keep repeating mountains are light, valleys are dark. 

I can't tell you the name of the paper I choose.  I dug it out of that large stash file I have.  I really need to clean it out, but that is another story for another time.  I colored the image on cryogen with my copics.  To help create the winter scene, I  used glossy accents under Kate's feet to give the illusion of ice.  Then I used emboss resist for the snowflakes to add some extra scene.  I also embossed snowflakes on some of the background paper.  I used pumice stone distress ink to ink around the edge of the image to give it a night time feel.  I cut the entire image out with a spellbinders die.  To finish the card, I used some charms, ribbon and a tag with  "Let it Snow" embossed on the front.  The sentiment was put together with words by Sent my Cards.

Copics used:

Pants/Shirt/Hairband:  RV91, RV93, RV95, RV99, C0, C3
Skates:  E50, E53, E55, C0, C3, C5
Skin:  E000, E00, E11, E13, R20
Hair:  E31, E35, E57, E59

For the inside of the card, I used matching purple paper from the front, but I stamped snowflakes around the edges with victorian velvet distress ink.  The snowflakes are by Stampers Anonymous.  I also cut out some white card stock with the matching spellbinders die from the front and inked it with more snowflakes.  The inside sentiment is by Stampabilities.
