This beautiful winter scene, drawn by Lauren Pope takes us back to a quieter time when a day was enjoyed skating on the neighborhood pond or taking your honey on a sleigh ride for two. This set looks fabulous colored or as a stamp and go creation! It even has elements to create an actual postcard with a vintage feel! How fun is that? This set is available now for pre-order HERE!
Now to my creation!
I knew I wanted to make this seem like a winter scene with just a little light color -- so I colored up just the "important things" like the trees, skaters, pond and the frame. While I didn't add glitter, I think before I officially send this one out, I am going to had to add some sparkle! ;-)
After stamping on Flourishes Classic White card stock, I used Copic markers and instead of using layers of color, I really only used one marker here and there - YG63, Y21, R29, B000, W3, B24, Y13 and then blended with the Copic Colorless Blender.
The rest is just matting it up! I used some of the mirrored paper in red, some sparkly May Arts ribbon and some fabulous Webster's Pages decorative paper. Easy peasy!
