Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #565 - Snow or Snowflakes!

Good morning and welcome to another fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps ! Are you ready for another fun and krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing? We've got some fabulous ideas for you and can't wait to see what you create! This week, our challenge theme for you is: Create a project with Snow or Snowflakes! I decided to make a wintry scene with some of the beautiful snowy stamp sets we have! I started off by stamping the sweet cabin and trees, along with the tree line, from the new Winter Scenery Set. That mountain scene in the background was created with one of the stamps in the Jolly Happy Snowmen stamp set and was perfect to add to the scene! 

I also white heat embossed some pretty snowflakes from the Snowflake Kisses for even more snowy goodness! I coloured in the background scene with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and added some white gel pen and Nuvo White Blizzard Glitter Drops details. I added a pretty frame cut from metallic cardstock and stamped a sweet sentiment with Magical Midnight Krafty Kolours Ink. 

Inside, I used the Snowflake Kisses set again in various colours of Krafty Kolours Ink and an awesome sentiment. I even added some soft stamping to my envelope!

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like. These must be new creations and you are welcome to use any stamp, however, using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp products will earn you double entries!
