Here I am with my second DT project for January for Country View Crafts and Challenges, with the theme of ‘Snowflakes + Stars’ as chosen by Zoe, our lovely team member.
The challenge is open worldwide and you can join the group here:
You must use products from brands that Country View Crafts stocks and please list them in your entry. You can enter 5 times each month with different projects. We’ve got a fabulous £20 prize voucher that one randomly selected winner will win this month.
I love snow! I know that not many people like the snow, but there’s something magical when it falls and those little shining crystal snowflakes adorn the sky. Snarky Cat thinks so too and has been out catching one for himself.
I also used the top off my Mattints bottle to create some circles with the watered down paints.
I stamped Snarky Cat onto some white card with Archival Jet Black ink, coloured with Distress Watercolor Pencils and then fussy cut out.
I die cut the snowflakes on white card from the set Sizzix 665582 Scribbly Snowflakes and then stuck them randomly on the page. I also glued 3 of the same together for a more rigid snowflake.
Now it was time to assemble the page.
I stamped the string of the ‘balloon’ onto the page where I wanted it to sit and glued down Snarky Cat next to it to look like he’s holding the balloon.
On 3D foam I placed the snowflake at the top of the string to form my ‘snowflake balloon’. I added a little diamanté for a bit of bling and some Distress Chunky Glitter glued on with Glossy Accents, for some ‘snow’ at Snarky Cat’s feet. I stamped out the sentiments onto white card from the Stamp and Stencil set THMM113, cut them out and then mounted them onto my page with 3D foam too and my journal page is complete. I hope you like it - gotta love a Snarky Cat playing in the snow.
Thank you for stopping by my blog - I hope you like my Snarky Cat in the snow and may be inspired to do something similar yourself and join in our challenge this month.
Hugs
Carol
