Smitten with Mittens

I received a parcel today that was full of stamp-y goodies. I almost doubled (oops…) my copic collection, and I got a couple cute stamps. I opened the package, and immediately stamped 3 of this image, and coloured them all in in different colourways.

It’s a stamp by Impression Obsession, and I bought it from Paper Garden Projects. There’s another gorgeous one I wanted (a snowman mug full of hot chocolate) but it was sold out. I had so much fun colouring this image! I have another pair of mittens in green, and another purple with grey cuffs just waiting to be made into something.

You can also see I’ve used one of my newest tools on this card – the Cuttlebug. This card was sitting on my desk, already inked blue, while I was colouring mittens. I didn’t realise it matched the blue mittens until later.

This was a test to see what would happen if I put the front of a card in an embossing folder, and left the back outside it, under the folder. It worked! Only the front embossed, which is what I wanted.

This coloured, stamped image makes this card perfect for Caardvarks’ Color It! Challenge.
