Frosty Fun

Here’s my card for this week’s My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club sketch challenge. I went wintery on this one, even though we’ve had non-wintery weather around here for much of the week.

I used the cute Frosty Fun skating girl as my focal image. She’s colored with Copic markers and cut out. I made a little backdrop for her using a soft blue panel as the sky and a strip of shimmery silver paper as a sheet of ice for her to skate on, then attached the cut out image with foam tape.

The cardfront is covered with a pair of paneled papers from an Echo Park winter paper pad. A scallop edged strip runs across the cardfront and to bring in a little more shimmer, I attached a silver/gray ribbon I found in my scrap pile to the piece before attaching it to the cardfront. The image panel is layered on top of the card on an angle. I stamped the “have some frosty fun” sentiment on a piece of a fancy edged label die cut and slipped it under the image panel. A sparkly little snowflake accent at the top of the panel adds one final frosty-themed touch to the card.
