Skiing By!

 I was lucky enough to get some Happy Mail this week from my lovely niece... gifting me this sweet stamp and die set from Pinkfresh Studio, called Skiing By!  I used a card by Nicky Meek that I found on Pinterest as my design idea, with my own spin on it:

There is minimal colouring required on the critters (so cute!) and they cut out so perfectly with the dies.  The set even includes the mountain and hillside dies, so other than my Copics, some ink blending on the sky and a little glitter - it came with everything I needed.

This will work perfectly for a holiday card for some of my friends that don't celebrate Christmas.  Cute and wintry.  I am entering this into the Pinkfresh Studio October challenge, using just the colours this month!

Winter Wonderland Challenge

The current challenge on the Art Impressions blog is Winter Wonderland!  We want to see your winter themed cards.  I am using half of the Snowman & Penguin Set (Sku #4508) - one of the sweet Ai Mini Front & Back sets:

 For this one, I cut a large oval on my Cricut, cut it in half and hand drew on the igloo details.

 This one has a hand drawn igloo, that I cut out and drew in the ice blocks.  Head on over to the Ai blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has to share today - Happy Stamping!
