Hi everybody! I'm sitting here in the craft room, kicking off the first weekend of December madness! My to do list for the weekend is actually a grid chart with columns for what has to get done each day! OMG. We just got home from the grocery store and I'm doing laundry and it's 9:00…and I forgot to eat dinner. Sheesh…It's the holidays! I made this card on Monday and I have been dying to share it with you! I was surfing around on blogs Monday morning and checked in on my sweet friend Audrey who made this amazing creation for her guest designer spot for Shabby Tea Room. I zipped over to Shabby Tea Room and saw the inspiration image… Well…the paper and glitter started flying! You know how sometimes you just can't stop yourself? This was one of those times!
The inspiration image is so pretty, don't you think? I love the icy coolness of it and all the texture. It's amazing how much texture there can be with white and cream. I love this! I never would have combined white and cream together! It's beautiful.
These ice skates are a personal favorite stamp set of mine from Papertrey Ink! I added some pretty grey socks and some little silver bells… Then I coated the skates in prisma glitter and the blades with Silver Stickles. In this photo you can see the cream/white combo pretty good.
Another favorite winter stamp…from Amuse! I stamped the snowflakes in grey ink on white paper for the background. In the foreground, I used shimmery Versamark (Champagne) on cream paper!
The sentiment is from Denami, and was stamped in the same gray ink.
Thank you so much for coming by to see me today! I hope that you have all kinds of fun things planned for the weekend! I'll see you soon!

Wanda,
This is gorgeous. I agree I would never think to pair cream and white, but it works really well. I adore this stamp and die and hope to get it one of these days. Hope you get lots done on your list today.

I love the white and cream together. The ice skates are my favorite, since I used to do a lot of it, even took it for PE at MSU! Your glitter is perfect!!!
Wanda, this card is beautiful! I don’t ice skate (you would get a good chuckle if I did though)but if I did, I would want sparkly skates and pretty socks for sure!
Beautiful card! Love the bells too.
