BELIEVE

Hey there, *sniff* today is the last day of the Our Craft Lounge / May Arts blog hop.  Did you have as much fun as I did checking out all the projects?  I want to say a BIG THANKS to the MA folks.  I always have so much fun teaming up with them...they have the *best* ribbon!  My card today uses one of my favorite OCL Christmas sets called Be Jolly.  I just love this snowman!  He was stamped on the panel, the snow on the ground and the sky were colored then it was embossed.  The snowman was stamped a second time, colored, fussy cut then adhered directly on top of the other.  I really like the look it gives and how about that MA ribbon!  Is it not gorgeous!?!  The sentiment tag is a MFT die that was colored with Copics.  I have a feeling I'll be using this die a lot this year!



Here's the inside...this whole set coordinates so well together!



COPIC COLORING:
SNOWMAN:  B63, BG70, C1, 0, YR04, YR000, E25, E23, E21  CANE:  E27, E25, E23, E21  HAT:  C5, C3, C1, C00, R27, R24, R22  HOLLY:  YG05, YG0000  SCARF:  R27, R24, R22, T2, T0  SKY:  YG0000  ORNAMENT / HOLLY (sentiment):  YG05, YG03, YG01, YG00, YG0000, C5, C3, C1, C00, R24  INSIDE IMAGE:  E27, E25, E23, E21, B63, BG70, C1, 0, YG0000

Well, that's all she wrote...leave some love on all of the participating DT blogs, OCL blog (The Lounge) and OCL Facebook page before midnight (Pacific time) tonight for a chance at some awesome blog candy.  After you're done, head over to the MA blog and leave some love for them because they are giving away some candy too!

I've had a great time this week and I hope you have too!  If you've been inspired to break out your OCL images and ribbon...then make a card/project and link up at The Lounge for their Ribbon Challenge...you might just win!

I guess it's getting close to this season as the stores are already gearing up with Christmas decorations. I really love snowmen and this summer they have truly been on my mind with all this heat. You have done your card justices,love the ribbon.

PUtting most of the color on the bottom was a nice technique. Very sweet.
