Christmas Card #4

For the background I cut out a snowflake and used it as a stencil, the background is white paste with glitter sprinkled on before it dried!
I also used the Expression thinlits die and an old snowflake die.
All supplies from Stampin Up!

More hand painted snowmen!

I think I am addicted to painting these snowmen!
These are the last for today, I have so many other things I should be doing!
For this card I did everything the same as the previous posts with the exception of the hat.
I hand drew the hat then cut it out, I cut a slit and then put the top of the snowman's head in the hole.
I also hand painted the snowflakes but the saying is a stamp from Stampin Up.
 
 
And here is another tag, she is kind of funny looking but she makes me laugh when I look at her.
 


Cute Hand Painted Snowman Tags!

Here are the tags I promised!
I painted with the same materials as in my previous post.
I love my White ink it shows up amazingly on the black card stock!
I hate how the white get pens always stop and start.



Now I can't wait to wrap some presents!
 










Hand painted snowman cards

I had a brilliant idea this morning, paint snowman, okay maybe not brilliant
 but I sure do love how they turned out.
In the summer I ordered some high pigment ink in white and black,
and this is my first time trying them out.
Normally I take black paint and add water but it often looks watered down.
 
Isn't he cute!  I also made some tags which I will show later!
 

Like I said earlier, I painted the face with black high pigment ink called, pro black and pro white by Daler Brown.
For the nose I used my Faber Castell Pitt pen, this was also my first time trying out this product.
I bought the markers because they are a blend able permanent ink. 
I wanted to be able to use my markers with mixed media and not be worried about them bleeding and this worked great!
I just used the white ink for shading!
Hope you enjoyed my cute snowmen!
Now to decided who will get them in the mail.

It's starting to look a lot like christmas!!

I have been busy making Christmas cards, I usually make between 40-50!  So needless to say they are not all different.  So for the next few days I will be posting some of the cards I have been making!
For this card I used the Festive Flurry stamps and matching framelits!
I also used the Snowflake Bigz die.
The Stamp is one of the single stamp you can purchase this season, Prince of Peace.
The DSP paper is from either last year or the year before.
I love the envelope liner Framelits, as you will see I have used it for all the envelopes this year!
All the supplies are Stampin Up!
