I haven't made a spinner card in years, but I want to send one to a family with young kids for Christmas. No time like the present.
First, I ink blended Distress Oxides onto heavy white cardstock. I flicked some water on, but I really wanted to emphasize snow, so I used a stamp with white Distress ink for this. I used a favorite MFT stamp set and my alcohol markers to color the trees and the animals. The bear was particularly hard because I have never colored "white" before. A video by Sandy Allnock helped with this. I finally used my 6th try. I followed video instructions from My Favorite Things to figure it all out. You can't see it in the photos, but I painted the pale blue ice with some clear glaze using a cheap paintbrush (came clean when I washed it) to make it shiny and look more like ice.Ingredients
