There's A Stamp for That Bi-weekly Challenge #49

 Today's card is for the bi-weekly challenge in the There's A Stamp for That Facebook group.  I was working on the never ending catalog of my stamps this morning and came across a set with the perfect sentiment for this challenge!  I then hit up Pinterest to check out ideas for this set.  I came across a post that I really wanted to do so I decided to CASE it (Copy and Share Everything).  The original is by Linda Dalke and you can see her card here.

I used Shimmery White cardstock as Linda recommended and used holographic clear embossing powder on the Stampin Up Winter Woods stamp.  After I embossed I used Distress Oxide inks to do the background (faded jeans and blueprint sketch). I waited a bit for the ink to dry and then wiped it off the trees. I created the snow hill with the Stampin Up Sleigh Ride die set and stamped the sentiment with blueprint sketch.  I finished it off with a few dot embellishments in the corner and used a Posca pen to add some gentle snow in the sky.


Update: 

Ok, I have to admit that the sentiment is not straight and was driving me crazy. I restamped on a scrap and then proceeded to try and cover the crooked one.   I tried dies, cutting a shape with my ScanNCut and finally resorted to just cutting a triangle with my trimmer and then matting to match the pic.  it took me longer to fix the sentiment than it did to make the card.  Ok, I can now live with this!
