Guest Design for Monkey 64

For Monkey Challenge 64, the theme is "Christmas in July". I'm lucky enough to be one of the guest designers this week. Here's the sketch:


Pretty cool huh? At first I wasn't sure what to do, I don't have a lot of Christmas/winter stamps. But I do have a lot of Snoopy stamps! We've already established that I love Snoopy. So how could I resist? Here's my "Guest Designer" card:

I started with Cherry Cobbler card stock. Then I layered a piece of snowflake acrylic on top of it. The glittery white and green cardstock are DCWV. I bought the candy cane embellishments at JoAnn's. I stamped the sentiment with Cherry Cobbler and used the decorative label punch. The Snoopy & Woodstock sledding stamp is from Stampabilities. Here's a close-up:

First I stamped the image with Early Espresso. I used Real Red and Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight and Bashful Blue markers to color in the image. I added glitter to the "snow". There's even a little gray pearl for Snoopy's nose! Now that you've seen my card, go on over and check out the rest of the samples at A La Card Monkey and then add your own to the mix.
