Art Impressions Chubby Snowman Shaker Card

Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!

In today’s card and video I will be showing you how I made this fun and interactive shaker card using the brand new Chubby Snowmen Set!

This card was inspired by the current Blog Challenge which is to create a card that reflects the “Reason for the Season”. My reason for the season is LOVE…and this little snowman and his little feathered friend just reflect that sentiment so perfectly!

We will also be creating an embossed background using the new Large Snowflake Dies! This is just another fun way to use your dies in a different way!!!

If you want to see another video I did previously where I had “Jesus is the reason for the season” as my sentiment then please click here for my video on the Animal Nativity Card! https://youtu.be/aUqlWNyR5wQ

Penny Black Love You Card

In todays video, I decided to challenge myself by coloring with only my Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens.  I don’t have all of the colors that I would like, but I decided to make do with what I have.  I think sometimes we all feel a little overwhelmed by the variety and amount of products that are available to us as crafters.  So what I sometimes do is just pick one or two products and see what I can do with just those items. I find that it can help to push me out of my comfort zone or even out of a creative block that I might be experiencing.  Plus, it is a lot of fun!

I hope you enjoy todays video and thank you so much for visiting!
