HEY FRIENDS! Halloween is over! We had 234 trick-or-treaters in just two hours this year. I thought two large bags of candy from Costco would be enough, but we ran out for the first time. Now it’s a new day, and I’m turning to holiday cards. Today I’m featuring Penny Black’s Snowy rubber stamp.

Snowy is a wood-block rubber stamp. I was hesitant to use it because I’ve grown so reliant on my stamp positioner for a clear image. But I’d forgotten how easy rubber stamping can be with a well-inked stamp. I stamped Snowy on OLO Marker Paper with Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black, colored it with Copic markers (see below), and cut it out with the coordinating Frosty’s Snow Dies.
I like the white cardstock in my card layers to match, so I used Accent Opaque White cardstock for both the card base and background panel. With a stencil from the Background Basics Stencils set, I inked a circular background in Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Cadette. Keeping the stencil in place, I stamped a tree background image from Winter Magic with VersaFine Clair in Nocturne. Then I removed the stencil and stamped a sentiment from Jolly Snippets.
That’s all for today!
