WT195 Got Any Envelopes???

Happy Thursday! Thanks for stopping by, I have a fun card to share along with a small tutorial on my technique. I still want to share a video but I have to get a tripod that will hold my camera first. Once I have the tripod, I hope to share videos instead of pictures as they take up to much room and certainly not as fun!! :) If any of you use a tripod and you LOVE it, I would LOVE to know what model you use?!

Today's card is for this weeks Ways to Use it Challenge "WT195" over at Splitcoast. The challenge this week is to use envelopes. You can incorporate one into your design, create an envelope to compliment a card or your maybe your envelope unfolds to reveal a card...anything you'd like as long as there is an envelope involved in some way.

Supplies Needed:

Cutting Mat

Hobby Blade

Ink

Sponges

Paper pieces to create scene

Place your pieces of cut cardstock to create some fun snow hills. Sponge on using some ink to give it some definition.

Sponge on a background, I chose to use Lovely as a Tree.

At this point this is where I applied my giltter. I used a paint brush to add the glue and dusted the areas with the snow glitter by Martha Stewart.

Here is my background piece for my card. I stamped some snowflakes using chocolate chip and did not re-ink for the lighter snowflakes. I then inked a sponge using close to cocoa and pulled the ink towards the piece of cardstock.



Here is the card completed. Please email me if you have any questions and if you create a card using my fun technique, I would LOVE to see it. Post your card link to the comment section here. jdmeyer6@sbcglobal.net


Tomorrow I will annouce the winners for the BIG Christmas Card Giveaway. Have a wonderful day!
