Stamp Simply #118 - Let It Snow!


For today's Stamp Simply challenge from Sharon Johnson, we're going to make it snow in cyberland! Some of us may have snow for Christmas, and some of us may not, so for today we'll bring in some snow! Everyone can play along with this challenge... just incorporate something snowy in your creation, and while you're at it, we're trying for clean and simple designs, too!

For my card, I was lucky to have this wonderful Antoinette image from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps already colored! So I paired her with this snowflake paper from Basic Grey, and thought a pop of cranberry red would look good with the brown and aqua-blue! I kept a fairly simple design to my card, choosing to keep all my cuts straight and embellishing with a simple ribbon/button combo.
For an added snowy element, I decorated Antoinette's coat with some Polar White Flower Soft.
Sharon has a fabulous sample for you to see on her blog, along with all the challenge details! And Sharon has started using Mr. Linky for the Stamp Simply challenge, so be sure to go leave a link to your creation at the end of her post so we can all take a look! (Remember, direct links to your post, not just to your blog! It helps everyone find your post immediately rather than having to sift through anything else you might post afterward!) Then be sure to hop to the blogs of the Stamp Simply team members and see their snowy creations, also!

Michelle Woerner, December Guest Designer

Thanks for stopping by today! Please check back tomorrow... I'll be hosting the Sketch Challenge at Paper Craft Planet, and I'd love it if you play along! There may even be prizes involved!

Happy stamping!
