Sugar Pea Mix It Up challenge

I've had a quiet month so far here on my blog, but I have been doing a lot of creating!  Just making things that I can't share for a few months... I did have a little while this evening to make a card for the August Mix-It-Up challenge on the Sugar Pea Designs blog, though.  It's my first time breaking into the sweet Eskimo Kisses stamp set:

If you know my style at all - this is seriously CAS for me!  Patterned paper is my usual go-to thing... but this sketch really had me thinking differently.  I blended two colours of Distress Oxide ink in the top corner to put under the sentiment, and blended a little soft aqua on the lower left to look like an icy pond.  You can't see it too well in the photo, but I added some swooshes of blue with a Copic marker as skate marks.  A little stitching and some sequins, and that was it.

Stamp set is Eskimo Kisses by Sugar Pea Designs;  Cracked Pistachio, Twisted Citron & Broken China Distress Oxide Inks;  Tuxedo Black Ink by Memento & Onyx Black Versafine ink for the sentiment; Copic Markers.
