I ♥ winter...

Hidee ho!

I hope all is well this morning. I'm having a wonderful weekend so far with a whole lot of nothin' scheduled for the rest of the day, LOL!

So there was a vendor challenge sponsored by Copic over at Two Peas In a Bucket during the month of November which I played along in. And on December 1st I found out that I was one of the lucky winners selected to receive a prize pack from them. Too fun! Well, it came yesterday and there was a set of six Sketch markers included that I already had soooo... I'm paying it forward over on my YouTube channel. That's right, if you would like a chance at winning this set of secondary colors then just head on over, become a subscriber, and leave a comment on this post... easy peasy! I'm leaving it open through the 20th and I'll have a video drawing the winner on December 21st. :)

Speaking of YouTube, last week I did a video coloring dark red hair on this Kraftin Kimmie Eva stamp and got a request to show how I colored the rest of her. Yesterday turned out to be the perfect day to finish her up so that I could get Eva onto a card for today's post. I paired her up with the new Winter Park papers from Echo Park and pulled all of my Copic colors from it, which you can see here. I had originally planned to see a lot more of that cute house paper in the design but when I came across that large "what I ♥ about winter" cut out I just couldn't resist building the card around it. I seriously love it with Eva because I can totally see her ditching that shovel and going back inside to a warm fire, hot cocoa and maybe even a winter hottie. ;)
I don't know if you can see it very well but I used a 'new to me' product on this card... those flecks of white in the background (I was going for the look of falling snow) where spritzed on using an October Afternoon Paper Doily Sprinkler. I have Erin (scrappyhour09 on YouTube) to thank for enabling me to give these a try. She has been using the Studio Calico version of these spritzers and I've really loved the look so when I had the opportunity to grab some OA ones during a Black Friday sale I couldn't pass it up. If I'm not careful I can see a new obsession forming... LOL! Thanks Erin!

Okey dokey, well thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you come back tomorrow when I'll start sharing previews of the new SOG Valentine release! :)
