Let It Snow Skaters Card
For the card front: Cut 4¾"x6¼" Winter Wonderland light snowflakes paper. Use the glue stick to glue the doily to the snowflakes paper, aligning one edge with the left paper edge. Trim off the excess doily along the right edge.
Cut ½"x6¼" from the border edge on the herringbone paper and glue to the snowflakes paper along the right edge. Glue the snowflakes paper centered on the front.
Cut 4"x6" watercolor paper. Open the embossing folder and tap the Tumbled Glass ink pad over inside front surface, leaving a few empty areas. Tap Stormy Sky in the empty areas. Tap Frayed Burlap sparingly over the surface. Spritz the inked surface with water, then immediately place the watercolor paper over it. Press the paper in place firmly for a moment, then lift it off.
When the watercolor paper is dry, use Marine ink to stamp the skater shown. Color the image with the pencils, adding darker colors in the shadowed areas. Also color the “ice” at her feet light blue. Brush over the image with the water brush to blend the colors. Let dry.
Paint the background with the White glitter brush and let dry. Trim to 3 1/8"x4 5/8", then round the upper left corner with the punch. Mat the paper on cardstock with 1/16" borders and glue to the front, 3/8" from the right edge.
Cut out the “let it snow” banner. Punch out the die cuts shown and remove the nibs. Cut a 4¾" length of the border die cut and glue it to the front, 5/8" from the bottom. Cut a 4¾" Dazzles™ border and place it above the die cut border. Glue and foam tape the banner and remaining die cuts and place Dazzles™ as shown. Knot a 3" ribbon and glue between the upper snowflake die cuts as shown.
For the inside: Place a doily on the craft sheet and swipe the Stormy Sky, Dusty Concord, and Frayed Burlap ink pads over it to completely color it. Let dry, then glue to the inside, aligning the left edge with the card fold. Trim off the excess.
Cut 4"x6" watercolor paper and use the embossing folder to stamp the design on it as for the front, using Tumbled Glass, Frayed Burlap and Dusty Concord inks. When dry, use Marine ink to stamp the skater shown, then repeat the coloring process. Blend the colors with the water brush and paint the background with the white glitter brush. Let dry.
Trim the skater panel to 3¼"x5" and round the upper left corner. Mat on cardstock with 1/16" borders, then glue to the inside, 1¼" from the fold. Cut 5/8"x6½" Wonderland herringbone paper and glue along the right card edge. Cut two 6½" Dazzles™ borders and place as shown.
Cut out the “enjoy the most…” sentiment and glue to the lower left. Punch out the snowflake die cuts shown and remove the nibs. Glue and foam tape the snowflakes and place Dazzles™ as shown. Knot the remaining ribbon and glue between the two lower snowflakes.
