Snow Challenge

For the: http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/

Let it snow challenge:



December Snowfall. I made this with a wooden framing, Artistic Outpost Stamps, 
Tim Holtz Embossing Powders.  I used Snow Tex for my snow. 
I distressed the background with Tim Holtz distress pad(s). 
December I took from the Seasonal papers. 

The metal embellishments I used Ranger Alcohol inks.  
I used Embossing Powders on the tree and framing. 
I cut the framing out from a menu I saw at Black Bear Diner. 
I used chipboard underneath for making it sturdy. 
The little squrrial I had from old embellishments.  
I used Antiquities Frosted Crystal on the branches of the tree.
The small metal embellishment read: Grateful.
I added small metal Oak Leaves on each upper corner
which I used gold Alcholol Ink to distress a bit.

December is here!


I bought a couple of Tim Holts canvases last year that came in a four pack on close out.
Here is one of them that had music on the background. I believe these were part of the
District Market collection.  I used Tim Holtz Christmas Carolers die cuts. The
background cards I bought at Target as part of the Feed Collection.  I always look
for items that can be used for other purposes such as background.
The string is from Tim Holtz Christmas decor and the lettering for Joy To The World.
December is fast upon us and here is an updated image of the Carolers.

I also added the small clip for a small 2 x 3 picture. I added Christmas rub ons 
from Tim Holtz.
