Sunday Greetings, hope everyone is comfy and cozy this winter day.
Today I'm sharing my last project as Special Guest Designer for My Besties Spanish Challenge.
Supplies Used:
Dick Blick tag board card base
Springhill Digital card stock
Basic Grey Dasher designer papers
Gecko Galz digital paper from The Big Chill ATC set
Image: My Besties colored with Promarkers and gel pens
Sizzix and Art Impressions snowflake dies
Cottage Cutz icicle border die
Hero Arts sentiment stamped with Versamark ink and heat-embossed with white ep
Stamplorations sentiment stamped with Versafine Clair ink (inside)
Glitter and ACRYLIC paint pens
Stickles
My project is in the reminder post for Challenge #102. Come play!
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my layout design, but I resized it to A9 and then reversed elements 2-a, 2-b, 4-a and 4-b to better accommodate my focal image.
I wanted to use multiple shades of blue on this card. I mixed papers from Basic Grey and Gecko Galz to get more shades. I die cut snowflakes and part of an icicle border at top right (and cut off the icicles to use as a snow bank at bottom left). I also used multiple mediums, combining acrylic paint and inks with Stickles and gel pens.
Close-up of Miss Phoenix Ray Bestie. I think every little girl my age had a fur car coat with satin lining, including myself. This image brings back good memories. I made sure to coat the fur with glitter to make it stand out.
Inside, with the Basic Grey mats and Stamplorations sentiment on a Spellbinders die.
The back of the card with the front to show continuity.
And one last look. I've really enjoyed my 3-month stint as Guest Designer and am thankful for the opportunity!
Finally, a seafood dinner to share for this week's Rain's Art & Dinner Date:

Well she is not only adorable, the whole card looks very professional ... beautifully done, Aimeslee. The choice of color and how it almost looks cold to the touch is perfect :) Hope you are having a wonderful and warm Holiday Season ...

I see you have a big cold coming your way.Brrr. This is a cute card and I love the double sided snowflakes. And your shrimp look delicious. I haven't had fried shrimp in forever, nor have I tried them in an air fryer either. You asked me 2 questions which I will answer-first of all, yes I have a Felix the cat clock. Actually my Felix clock died a few years back and my husband got me a new one that is Mrs. Felix. Complete with pearls. I'll have to get a photo of it. And the handle over my fireplace is strictly decorative. The people who built and lived in our house before we did put in one of their grandfather's grinding stones. It is different, isn't it? Hugs-Erika
Such a cute card, adorable image and snowflakes.
Thank you for joining at Cut it Up for our Christmas challenge.

Great card Aimeslee. I loved the photo of the breaded air-fried shrimp. We haven't tried those yet in our Airfryer. I think a trial could be in the offing.
