Hello there crafters!

Today I´m sharing a card created with the Eraser Technique which is the challenge over at Christmas Card Throwdown, since I never heard of it or tried it, I wanted to give it a try.

 I tore a few strips of paper and sponged them with graphite to create the snow, it has a little poor visibility on the photo but I hope you see it, I also used the "Snowball" stencil from My Favourite Things. I fixed with hair spray. But after I stamped and blurred the snowman from MFT´s "Frosty Friends" stamp set, I felt that I wanted to give it a little more body so I filled it with both Glossy Accents and sprinkled over loose glitter. All other coloring is made with my Copic pens. I created a frame using Lawn Fawn "Outside In Stitched Scalloped Rectangle" dies, I added snowflakes to it using the Hot Of The Press "Snowfall" stencil and heated in white embossing pouder. I have also used Lawn Fawn "Winter Big Scripty Words" stamp set together with the coordinated die and one Rox Stamps die.

Ok, that´s all from me today, thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit

A Big Hug On Your Birthday

Hello and welcome!

 I have a Birthday card to share today where I have used one of the wonderful stamps from Tim Holtz "Bird Crazy" stamp set.

But first I started with the background, that was spread with embossing paste over the "Polka Dotty" stencil from Studio 490 Wendy Vecchi. I then sprinkled over Stampendous "Shabby White" embossing pouder and heated in to get the puffy surface...love those pouders! Next, I colored the bird with my Copic pens and stamped the Rox Stamps sentiment. I used foam tape to give dimension and finished of by adding a flower and a golden ribbon.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit
