ok, let's get onto my card!

for my card I used the adorable So Merry stamp set from Paperie Ink! I am just in love with those adorable ice skating bears! eeep!

I colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then fussy cut them out! I also added some details to the image with a white gel pen!

for the background, I tinted some white embossing paste with grey ink to make a light grey color, and then used the Carta Bella Merry Snowflakes Stencil! looooove the crisp, thin lines of those images!
I also used the Stitched Pond die from Lawn Fawn and cut it in half, to create the ice rink! I used Distress Inks in Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina to ink blend on some color. then I splattered in the same colors and white acrylic paint! looooove how that came out!

enjoy!
