A Winter Ragamuffin

Hello dear friends !!! I do hope you all are enjoying your weekend !!! I really hate to see it come though for that means my vacation is about over !! (Pouting)  I so dread going back to those long work hours again.

But I have so enjoyed my play time I have gotten this week. I saw a criss cross  card that Bev had done and just had to try it.

I used this adorable image from Krista Smith I just love her images. She has been colored with my copic’s and I have used some Satine Mother of Pearl paint for my snow and the snowman, I also added Hologram Glitter Pen to highlight the snow along with some glamour dust. Then I used some glamour dust glitter paint on the heart on the snowman. So this project really sparkles lol All these products are from Susana’s Custom Art and Cards and I so love them there is so much texture to the Satine Mother of Pearl paint.

So for my special project I made a card with one of the new Tilda's and I have used papers from BG. I used some SU rub on's on the top of the card also but you can't see very well in the picture. I added some leaf's and branches from the MS punches and one of the spellbinder dies at the bottom. I also used one of the EK success border punches. All of these items on my card you can find at Simon Says Stamp, even the roses I used on this card you can get there.

Then I also made a notebook with the sketch we have that was made by Mina. I again used the BG papers and MS border punch along with the leaf and branch punch for the roses. Some SU ribbon and punches for my wording which the wording is from Simon Says Stamp brand. I used my bind it all to make the notebook holder and distressed the edges with the distressed ink.
