A Canadian Classic

As soon as I saw the Free Skate Bundle on page 44 I was reminded of skating as a kid and making the effort to get out there once a winter with my own kids! We typically skate on a local rink and I have to say it is just like riding a bike! You never forget how! I thought it would be a great card for Day #9

I created this skate card using the Highland Heather and Purple Posy inks for a bit of twist. I added some details to the skate by colouring the heal and laces with Stampin’ Blends (Basic Black and Highland Heather) and added some Wink of Stella. I used the Delicate Silver ink and an Aqua Painter to color the skate blade. And a little sponging with Purple Posy on the background and a few flicks of my Highland Heather Stampin’ Write marker completed the background! I also added a strip of the Mercury Glass Acetate along the side as it resembled cracked ice to me. I hope you are inspired to give the Free Skate Bundle a try.
