New Craft Stamper Challenge for November

The Craft Stamper Challenge for November is a true creative challenge.  The idea is to use stamps and punches, etc. for things other than what their true purpose is to create a winter theme.  I made a cute winter, all occasion card that measures 5" by 7".



I used a piece of  VERTIGO from IMAGINE Crafts to start with.  This gives the background a lot of depth since you can stamp on both sides.  It also adds wonderful texture.  I cut two pieces of white paper to make curvy snow drifts. 




 My stamp for the snow man is just old jar lids dipped in StazOn Jet Black ink stamped onto the punched circles.  The cute face, scarf and hat are from a stamp by Darcie.  The phrase is also from that collection.  I framed the phrase and then added a "wooden" pole to the scene.  I made the snow flakes from white irRESISTibles.  Now that the prep work is done it is just a matter of gluing things down.  In no time at all you have a nice card fit for any winter occasion.  

Pop on over to the Craft Stamper website and check out the inspiration pieces.  As usual, there are prizes to be won!  Have a great week end.  Talk to you soon ~ Hugs ~ Renee
