Hello Friends, It has been a while since I posted. We have been trying to do some remodeling and two of our Grandsons were heavy into wrestling tournaments which required traveling so we could support them. Things have settled down a bit allowing me a little more free time. I have been making lots of cards, I have just been posting them on Splitcoaststampers.com instead of on my blog. I miss all my blog friends though! I was inspired today by the Shopping Our Stash challenge SOS514 - Winter Wonderland (winter landscape or white on white). I have a city landscape and some white on white too. I started by stamping the Rubbernecker Window and Bench image. I watercolored it with Daniel Smith watercolors and added in a bunch of Snowtex. I split the image up and popped it on an embossed white background. When searching for a sentiment, I ran across my Scottie punch and thought it would add some whimsey. Both the sentiment and the Scottie punch are from SU! Hope you have all bee
Hello friends, Isn't this new House Mouse Image the cutest? I am so glad that Spellbinders has partnered with House Mouse and brought in new images. I was inspired to add birch trees and snow after seeing THIS pretty card. The snow is done with Snowtex which is one of my favorite winter mediums, and I painted the birch trees with black acrylic paint mixed with water and painted with an old credit card. Everything else was painted with Daniel Smith watercolors. This is being entered in the HMFMC#402 which is Anything Goes with an option of rainbow. While you might not think of a rainbow when you see this card, I actually used a lot of colors in the painting: yellows, browns, pinks, reds, and blues. Some are not obvious because they are mixed with other colors or a very light. Thanks for dropping by. I have been a little under the weather lately, but I am feeling much better. Hugz, Nancy
