Whimsy Snowball Fight is On! Blog Hop with Prizes to win!!


I've been hit!!
If you have hit me with a snowball from LISA's blog, your aim is perfect! If you have landed here randomly, duck, because you are in the middle of a snowball fight! ;-)
If you want to start at the beginning, go to DEB's blog.
There will be a $50.00 gift certificate for the winner of this fight, to be spent at the Whimsy store.  The winner will be chosen randomly off the Whimsy Blog, so be sure to go there and get your name in for the draw!  AND, three more winners will be chosen randomly from all the blogs in this hop, so leave comments on every one to increase your chances!  Each of those three winners will get one of the newly released Snickerdoodle Kids stamps that I have illustrated for Whimsy!
On my card I feature Janice, and the stamp is called "Ready, Set, Duck!"
I coloured her with the following Copics:
Face: E00, 11, R22
Snowsuit and pink in scarf: RV10, 11, 91, 93
Boots: E51, 55
Hair: E50, 51, 55
Blue and green on hat, mitts and scarf:  B21, YG11, 13
Snow: B60, 63
Background: B21, B00, 000,0000
B21 and blender pen on white trim
Edges sponged with Faded Lipstick Distress Ink

I covered the whole main panel with Versamark Clear Ink and embossed twice with Ultra Thick Embossing Powder.
Cuttlebug "Ornamental" dies used as well as Spellbinders Labels 4
Here is a sideview to show the dimension:

And a close-up to show the colouring details:


Now gather up a big huge pile of snow, and get ready to throw a snowball at CRYSTAL, cuz she's the next blog on the hop.  "DUCK CRYSTAL!!! INCOMING!!!"
