New Years With A Cool Friend!



Hello all!  Lisa here and I'm sharing a New Years card I created using the A Cool Friend stamp set!  I knew I wanted to create a New Year's card with this guy and was having a hard time deciding what that might look like, so I just stamped him and started coloring his body with my go to (BG0000 and the blending pen) and it came to me that he'd probably be wearing a fancy outfit for New Years so when it came time to color his hat and scarf I chose a gold and silver pallet.


I used some yellows for the gold spaces (Y28, Y26, and Y21) and cool grays for the silver spaces (C5, C3 and C1) and when I was done coloring I added some gold and silver Wink of Stella and added some extra clear over the top for extra sparkle!

Once I had him colored up the rest of the card just fell into pace... of course I'd use some black and then lots more gold.  I cut a snowflake (once from some gold mirror cardstock and once from black cardstock and stacked them for dimension).


I built my sentiment using the Headline Type Alphabet cut from the same gold and black as the snowflake and a sentiment from the Christmas Blessings sentiment set.  I decided to emboss the Happy New Year part in white to balance the white from my cool dude.

Thanks so much for stopping!  Wishing you all of the best for the coming New Year!  Enjoy and Be Safe!  See you next year!
