Purple Onion Designs Blog Hop

It has been a privilege to design for Michele at Purple Onion Designs as it is to participate in today's blog hop in her honor. Michele has been traveling up and down the east coast to help her family for several weeks while at the same time trying to conduct business. Tragically, she lost her father. My heart goes out to her during this extremely difficult time. 

If you arrived from Susen Srb's blog you are right on track. If not, then start at the beginning at Sandy Allnock's blog. 

In celebration of the hop, Sandy Allnock (who is the organizer of this blog hop) is giving away spots in a class of their choice to 3 lucky commenters along the bloghop - so be sure to comment everywhere! If the winner has already purchased a class during the current sale, that class fee can be refunded. Winner will be posted on Sandy’s blog on December 1. Good luck!

So on to my card today.

I masked off the snow globe portion of the Winter Friends image using washi tape, inked up the image, removed the washi and stamped onto a Neenah cardstock piece. I created a mask for the image and sponged around it with tumbled glass distress ink, colored the image with Copic markers and then cut out the panel with a stitched die. I stamped the sentiment from the Essential Holiday Greetings Sentiment set onto a red cardstock banner using Versamark ink and then white heat embossed. The sentiment banner was attached with foam tape. After attaching the panel to a grout gray card base, a couple of doubled up snowflakes were anchored by enamel dots.
