Set Your Mind


I probably won't be posting tomorrow, so here's tomorrow's card today. :)  I am playing along with the Curtain Call "Frozen" Challenge, the SSS Monday "Winter Wonderland" Challenge, and the SCS Saturday Inspiration Challenge.



To make my card I cut a piece of watercolor paper with the Scalloped Die from MFT's BluePrints 20, then used the cross stitch die from the same die set to make my two rows.  I stamped snowflakes from Verve's Glad Tidings in VersaMark ink and clear embossed them, and then rubbed over the top of them with PTI's Aqua Mist Ink Cube.  After softening the ink with water, I sponged over the snowflakes directly with more ink, then I stamped the tiny snowflakes with an old SU stamp that I had in my basket.  I think it might be from the set that had a polar bear with a star???  Maybe 10 years ago???

The sentiment is stamped on another piece of watercolor paper and attached with foam tape.  It is from a wonderful older set by Clear Dollar Stamps.

Thanks for dropping by!
