Time For A Snowball Fight!


Hello again!  Today I have a card using digi stamps by Sweet November.  I absolutely love the flexibility of digi stamps.  I can make the computer do all the hard work of masking for me.  The recent release, Joyful Gatherings was available for a limited time as digi stamps, so I am so glad that I purchased it while it was available.  The kids on this card are from the Snow Days Stamp Set and the tree is the Forest Stump and Hollow Log Digi Set. My log is not hollow because my little friends definitely needed something strong to hide behind.  

I used my software program to draw in light lines to help me with the snow drift placement and the horizon.  I am still not very confident with my blending on big areas like the sky, so I did decide to mask off the bottom of the card and then used the Copic Airbrush System to put my sky in.  


You might be wondering how I was able to mask my scene off since I had manipulated and resized my images. I printed off the image on plain copier paper and then covered it with a piece of Eclipse Art Masking Tape and ran it through the printer again.  ** A huge shout out to Amy Young for the tip on this masking tape.  It is a game changer - I love it.


I used Copic markers in the following colors:

  • Hair - E53, E55, E57
  • Skin - E000, E11, E04, R20
  • Yellow - Y00, Y06, Y19
  • Orange - Y32, YR15, YR04
  • Green - YG00, YG23, YG25
  • Aqua - BG11, BG15, BG49
  • Blue - B21, B34, B37
  • Pink - RV23, RV25, RV29
  • Log - E81, E42, E43, E44, E53, E59
  • Dog - YR30, YR23, YR24, YR27
  • Snow - BV31
  • Sky - B000, B00, B01

This card turned out so cute!  I like that it could be used with a number of different sentiments.  I think it would be an adorable birthday card for a fun little friend.  What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you have an amazing day!
