There's just over a week left to join in at CAS Christmas.
I had so much fun creating this guy!
Susan chose a fun challenge at CAS Christmas this month.
I put this stamp from Serendipity in my MISTI and inked him with markers,
using my water brush after each stamping. I repeated inking and stamping
until I was happy with the results.
It was really fun watching him come to life bit by bit!
Serendipity is having a blog hop and if you comment on all the hoppers
you're entered into a random drawing for a $20.00 gift certificate.
There's also lots of $1.00 stamps and a great deal on a grab bag at the
Serendipity store.
Inspriation and bargains. What a deal!
Enjoy!

What an adorable snowman, Bonnie, beautiful card. xx
ReplyDeleteHe is one cutie, I would definitely go skiing with him tomorrow since there's still ski on the slopes. Summer shorts and a T-shirt right now, but for me, I'll will absolutely take his scarf, mitts and hat.
ReplyDeleteAgain, beautiful soft colours, loving your colour combo too. xx
I love this cute skiing snowman, Bonnie! Your fantastic watercoloring with the distress markers totally brings him to life. It's soft, pretty, and delicate. The Pool Party matting and the red & white bakers twine are perfect, matching the colors used for the snowman. Hideko xx
ReplyDeletethis might have to go on my Serendipity wish list, your snowman is so cute and yourwater colouring is amazing :)

ReplyDeleteOh Bonnie...this snowman is absolutely ADORABLE and I just love how you water colored him!! What a truly delightful card...frame worth my friend! LOVE it!! :0)
ReplyDeleteYour MISTI stamping and watercolouring looks amazing, Bonnie! I can just imagine how much fun you had with this adorable guy. Love the colours. xx
ReplyDeleteSure did come to life and what a wonderful water colour effect. So so pretty and utterly adorable x
ReplyDeleteYou did an outstanding job with this technique, Bonnie. This is my newest and favorite on to do and never thought to use it on something besides scenic and flowers. Love the effect! His sweater and hat look so fuzzy and soft!
ReplyDeleteBut fun! You also had a good time with staining watercolors and the end result is amazing.
