So you might have just arrived from Kelly and left her some love on the way.

So on we go with my project for the Bloghop. As due to weird circumstances my Release 2 stamps never made it to my home I had to get creative and use my coordinating dies that I received in advance.

This is what came into my mind...a somewhat different card for a change:

For the base of the card I picked some heavy whisper white cardstock . On top I layered a diecut piece and added some colored embossingpaste that I adhered with a brick stencil on top of the cardstock. The paste gave the background a real brick structure.

On front of the brick house I diecut a little snowhil from white glimmer paper. I also cut some stockings from the Elfish Antics Dies and cut off the little hanger from the top. Some inking and white glaze pen later you have two little elfish boots that I placed next to a little pile of white glimmer paper snow balls, ready for an elfish snowballfight ;)

On the other side I diecut a little sleigh from the Warm Hugs Dieset and gave him some shiny bits using a starbust gel pen and popped it up using some small dimentionals.

To create the snow for the mainimage of my card , which is the window, I mixed some white embossingpaste with glimmer powder and put it on the bottom and top of the window frame that I diecut from early espresso cardstock.

I put a piece of windowsheet behind the window and diecut a female elf and a little present from black cardstock using the Elfish Antics Dies. I then layered them behind the window sheet and a blended piece of crushed curry cardstock to give t a look of silhouettes behind a light source.
