HELLO!!
WOW!! It's
February 1st and if you're like me you're wondering where January went!!?? I'm here with the New
Paper Sweeties February 2016 Inspiration Challenge #40!! I'm a
HUGE LOVER of
Snowmen so when I saw this
Inspiration Photo I had SO MANY Ideas!! LOL!! After playing with some of my
FAVORITE Paper Sweeties Products though, I just had the CUTEST AHHHAA!! Moment!! =) To create a
Snowman Gumball Machine!! HOW FUN is that!!??
I used the New
Snow Time Add-on: Sweet Treats Stamp Set and the coordinating
Sweet Cuts Snow Time Add-on: Sweet Treats Die Set along with the
Snow Time Stamp Set and the coordinating
Sweet Cuts Snow Time Die Set!! I
Stamped and
Embossed the
Gumballs and a
Heart just in the
bottom of my
Snowman Gumball Machine and had to do some
Masking with some
Post It Tape to get the
Layered Design I wanted!! I used my
Copic Markers to
Color in the
Gumballs in
Three different
Shades!! I used
R00 & R20 for the
Light Pink Gumballs,
RV11 & RV32 for the
Mauve Pink Gumballs and
V12 & V04 for the
Light Purple Gumballs!! I
LOVE LOVE LOVE these Sets and think there are SO MANY FUN Ways that you can use them in your
Paper Crafting!! After looking through my other Sets I've also used several other sets to finish off the
Snowman Gumball Machine!! I used the
Carrot from the
Bunny Hugs and Kisses Stamp Set for the
Nose and I used the
SWEET Sentiment from this
Set too only I
cut it apart so I could just use the
"Hugs and Kisses"!! It's the
PERFECT Size and everything!!
SQUEAL!! =) Then I've used the
Snow Friends Stamp Set and the coordinating
Sweet Cuts Snow Friends Die Set for the
Top Hat and the
Scarf for my
Snowman!! I used
Patterned Paper from
Prima and then added some
Shading with my
Copic Markers and some
WoW Red Glitter Embossing Powder for some
Sparkle!! Again the PERFECT Size!! =) I used the
Sweet Cuts Deck the Halls Die Set to die cut some
Branches for the
Arms of my
Snowman!! I was SO EXCITED to find that these too, were the PERFECT Size!! I
Stamped and
Embossed Snowflakes in
WoW White Embossing Powder to the
Patterned Paper Pieced Card Base I created!! I decided to add a Piece of
Vellum over the
Entire Card Base to make it less BUSY so my
Snowman Gumball Machine would really take center stage!! I
added some of the
Pink Watermelon Flower Sequins ontop of the
Vellum for the
Centers of some of the
Embossed Snowflakes underneath!! I put some
Crystal Seed Beads in the
Center of the
Sequins just to
Finish them off and to add even more
Sparkle!!
I created a
Ribbon Cluster to add my
Tag Sentiment too then
my Card was done!! I hope you
LOVE it as much as I do!!?? I also hope you'll stop by the rest of the
AMAZING DT Team Blogs to see what they have create!!
