FM191 Winter and Snowflakes

So it is finally time to move on from Christmas but that doesn't mean that winter is over. I loved this weeks challenge because I am still able to use my Christmas/Winter sets but in a different way.

Here's this weeks challenge at The Friday Mashup! 

1. Create a project with a "Winter theme". 

2. Create a project  with "Snowflakes". 

3. or Mash it Up! and create a "Winter project with Snowflakes".

In other news this will be my last month as a design team member for the Friday Mashup. It was a 1 year term and they are bringing in some great new talent.

FM182 Friend Card with Galaxy Technique

When I seen the challenge for this week at the Friday Mashup I didn't think I would be able to pull it off. However, the technique was easier than I thought.

Here's your Friday Mashup Challenge:

1. Create a project with the "Galaxy Technique".   Links to technique HERE & HERE.

2. Create a project for "A Friend". 

3. or Mash it Up! and create a "Project for a friend using the Galaxy Technique".

I used reinkers with a few drops of water to create my background. I did't want my background to be as dark as the video shows you so I used Basic Grey reindeer. This allowed my stamping to show up perfectly. Looking at my card now I wish I had stamped my polar bear in black but it was too late.

I heat embossed my polar bear and snow. I also added smooch spray to give my card a little extra sparkle.

Thank you Holly for this challenge, I enjoyed being pushed out of my comfort zone!
