Today I'm sharing a very simple Winter card featuring the Cozy Knit Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. It makes such a pretty background! I love, love, love this stencil! I blended Tumbled Glass and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inks over the stencil leaving white space around the edges.

The adorable girl and snowman (and the bunny further down in the pictures) is from the STAMPtember stamp set collaboration from The Greeting Farm and Simon Says Stamp called Warm the Heart. This is an exclusive set that, unfortunately, is no longer available. I'm so glad I was able to get it and super excited that I could play with it already. Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used to color up these cute images:

Skin: E000, E00, E11, E04, R00, R20

Hair: YR31, E43, E44

Hat: B000, B00, B02, B04, V000, V12, C00, C1, C3

Coat / Button: V000, V12, V15, V17, B000, B00, B02

Pants: B000, B00, B02, B04

Shoes: N0, N1, N3

Snowball: C00, C1, C3

Snowman: C00, C1, C3, YR21, YR15

Snowman Hat: B000, B00, B02, B04, N0, N1, N3, N5

Snowman Buttons: B000, B00, B02, B04

Bunny: W00, W1, W3, R00, R20 V000, V12, V15, C00, C1, C3

Since I did my ink blending directly on the front of my card base, all I had to do was adhere the cute die cut images to the card. I heat embossed the sentiment using Sugar Cube Pigment ink, Alabaster White embossing powder and my heat tool on True Black card stock from Papertrey Ink. I trimmed the sentiment and popped it up on the card using foam tape.
