Skating Gnomes

Skating Gnomes

 

This month's new release has definitely inspired me to work on that Christmas card list and these little Skating Gnomes absolutely stole my heart.  It's Brenda here to share 2 similar but different cards with you.

 

 

For both cards I started with a watercolor paper and did some smooshing in colors that give an loose, icy feeling.  I cut the bases from colored cardstock and a bit of glittery paper to add some sparkle.  The gnomes and sentiments were printed and cut with a Silhouette and then colored with Copic markers.   Once the first Gnome was positioned on his background, a few sequins were placed as well as some Stickles added to the sentiment.

 

 

This second card was inspired by the Aurora Borealis which many people had a rare opportunity to see recently.  My son even got a picture in Iowa!  The card was made in the same manor, but this time I used several colors of ink for the smooching, drying the paper between applications.  It was finished off with some embossing powder and a few gems.  These were so much fun to make!

 

 

Here is the October release digi I used today -
