Snowy Night

Yes, really lol! I miss the cold of the snow when it is super warm.

Aloha!

Did you know it snowed up on Mauna Kea a few days ago? Yup. I had the a/c on down here at 1400 feet because it was 83 degrees in our bedroom, and then it rained really hard, which turned into snow up at 14,000 where the telescopes are. The challenge I made this for is over at SCS and it's VSN week. Misti asked us to use a circle and 3 colors. She listed white, black, blue and a couple of others, but after thinking about it, I thought about the snow :D I punched out a circle from masking paper for the moon, used white gel pen and Stickles for the stars, snow, & Wink of Stella Clear for the moon & around the moon and on the tops of the hills. Use a gray and light blue markers for the squiggly shadows, then white gel pen, & even Stickles. I cut out some curvy hill shapes from old paper and sponged for the hills.

Stamp Set: Really old B&B pine tree stamps on wood mounts
Cardstock: GKD Black, Neenah White

I hope this helped cool you all down!

Winter Nights

I love seeing snow, esp at night and how quiet it makes everything. I also miss seeing the deer creep across the land, looking for food, standing majestically in the moonlight. We nailed up so many No Hunting signs on our last property and were always shocked when people would come up in pick ups, a spot light and guns shooting. We had to duck in our own homes. Don't miss that! But in my mind and on paper, I can see the way it should be.

Made for Beate's HYCCT "Flat is Beautiful" challenge, plain flat card.

Stamp Set by Theresa Momber, available at Gina K. Designs "Life is Good" (I just used the larger deer and one of the sentiments in this set) I added a tail and extra points to his antlers.

Masking and sponging (pink and blue). I cut a 1 inch circle from Scor Tape, covered it with clear glitter and that is my moon. I used both glitter and white gel pen for snow/stars.

Much aloha for looking.
