Time for a new challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week we are making cards inspired by this fabulous Ice Inspiration moodboard created by our talented teamie Laura:
So many wonderful wintery, icy inspiration photos here. And the design team is using glitter from Glitter Ritz or DIstress Glitter this week. I was inspired by the photo on the top right of the snow with the sun hitting it just so. I made the snow element of my card using some white embossing paste through a stencil and covered it with Rock Candy DIstress Glitter for that snowy effect...
Remember, just by playing along and linking up your project to the SSS Wednesday Challenge post you can qualify to enter a $50 shopping voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store.
One lucky winner will be chosen at random, it could be you! And couldn't YOU use something new??
I hope you get to join in on all the fun and play along with the challenge. I can't wait to stop by some of your blogs and take a peek at what you have made. Have fun!
Make sure to check back each Wednesday for another fun challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

Cheiron, your bird card is just beautiful. The stenciled background is just a perfect way to set him off. I just subscribed to your blog- so glad I found you!

I have yet to use embossing paste but I'm now dying to! The texture it gave your card is phenomenal.

Interesting how you used the bird on the branch

What a beautiful wintry background you've created for your card! I love the bird on the branch, and this makes me wonder how on earth those tiny creatures manage to survive in this bitter cold weather we've been having! NJ!
