Winter Adventures & Alpine Winter!

Welcome to our Create With Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is this alpine inspiration photo:

There’s a tiny little bit of blue in the inspiration photo so I used that as my stamping layer and then added a few layers so as not to cover my white-embossed snowshoes too much:

Do you like how the Poppy Parade stamped and diecut bow really pops against the other colros? I almost went with Coastal Cabana and then changed my mind. I stamped the snowshoes several times in horizontal rows and then sprinkled white embossing powder and set them with a Heat Tool:
