Yes, I am enjoying playing again this week...
Last week the babez were sick, sick, sick and I followed suit!
Ugh!
I also had company over the weekend and so that makes getting some time to play a little difficult.
So...today I just HAD to sit down and get this card OUT of my head!
I'm still not feeling 111% so I only made two...
Yes, I know it looks like my eight-year-old daughter did it...
In fact she could probably do a much BETTER job than I...
But I think he turned out not too badly...
Here's what I used:
Ink & CS = SU Tempting Turquoise
White splatter mesh
[I have had this stuff in my stash for YEARS!!! I have NO idea where I would find it now...and YES, I'd like to find it!]
White, orange & lime green felt
Brown thread wrapped wire [for arms]
Brads - mini & regular black, mini white
SU Set - 'Merry' [13/232]
White fiber and white pompoms.
- - - - -
It's hard to see but I stamped the mittens from the 'Merry' set onto the TT cs for the card background.
I then assembled the snowman and plunked him into the white fiber on the bottom of the white splatter mesh.
I stamped the hat from the 'Merry' set onto a scrap of white cs and trimmed it out.
Used another scrap of the lime green felt for the hat band and glued a pompom at the top.
So I used almost all of the elements for this week's JB06 Challenge.
Scarf was made of some warm fuzzy felt, mittens and hat were stamped!
The ear muffs eluded me...
LOL...
TFP!
