Guest Designer: Jessica Frost-Ballas

Hello! Jess here from All the Sparkle I am so honored to be guesting for Mama Elephant today! The September release was full of AMAZING products and I'm excited to share a fun holiday card for all the dog and cat lovers! ;)

 

I just love that little kitty hiding in the snowman and thought he'd be perfect in the middle of my puppy snowball fight! To start I stamped the snowballs, pups, and kitty from Happy Woofmas with Versafine, heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder, and colored them with Copic markers before die-cutting them with the coordinating dies. I added a few accents with a white gel pen, spectrum noir clear sparkle, nuvo crystal glaze, and chunky and prisma glitter!

 

Next I die-cut the Hillside Cover die from white cardstock and used post-it notes to mask each hill layer so I could blend a little tumbled glass distress ink on the tops of each hill. I stamped the sentiment from Scripty Xmas with Versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder. I adhered the cover die to a white card base and added my critters with a mix of regular adhesive and foam mounting tape. Finally I added a little liquid adhesive to parts of the hills and sprinkled them with chunky and prisma glitter for a little extra sparkle! And that's it! Pretty clean and simple but with a little pop of sparkle...just the way I like it! 

 Thanks so much for stopping by today and BIG thanks to Angela and Kryssi for inviting me to share with you! Have a wonderful day! -Jess
