Make Your Own Background Challenge

We have a new challenge today at The Crafter's Cafe.  And what a fun theme this is, "Make Your Own Background".  I decided on a winter scene.  I started with SU Crumb Cake cardstock as my base. I topped it with SU Midnight Muse which had been stamped with a snowfake by Judith.  I heat embossed these snowflakes with Stampendous embossing powder in Winter Wonderland. Next I used a die cut from Marianne Design Creatables, LR0283, to make a snow background.

I used an image by Karleigh Sue our sponsor.

This is Ice Skating.  I colored her with my Copics and made an ice skating rink with Copics and Icicle Stickles.  I also used Stardust Stickles on her hat and jacket.  I used SB Deckled Rectangle to cut out my image.  My sentiment is from Digital Delights Snow Sentiment Set.  I used SU Circle Punches to cut out the sentiment and base.

Copic Markers Used:
B24, B60, B91, C00, C1, C3, C5, E000, E00, E11, E31, E33, E35, G43, G46, RV91, RV93, RV95
