Today, and for the next two weeks, I have the honor be being a GDT at Quirky Crafts. Their challenge has two sponsors, Bugaboo Stamps and Sweet Pea Stamps. The theme is a fun one, "Magic of Animals," which I interpreted as animals which may have magic, like dragons! :-D
This darling dragon is from Sweet Pea Stamps and it's called "Snowflake Wonder." I colored the image with ProMarkers and then used pale blue chalk to color in the snowy sky. I added the darker blue clouds because that snowflake had to come from somewhere; I've never seen one fall from a clear sky! :-D
I added some sparkle to the snowflake and cut the image piece by using a square die as a border die on two sides. What you're seeing is the 'outside' of the die cut. I added a large, die cut snowflake (Cheery Lynn die), and put some sparkle on it before layering on the sentiment. The tiny snowflake embellie was in my stash. I added the bling of two rows of small rhinestones to the lower corner. Lots of glitter and bling on this card which celebrates every child's wish for snow on Christmas.
