Skates - The Friday Mashup #69 & The Sweet Stop Sketch #169

I'm combining 2 challenges in one today - the challenge with The Friday Mashup here which is Christmas in July i.e. make a Christmas card and finish the inside & The Sweet Stop Sketch challenge here
I missed the linky deadline for the Friday Mashup, but am sharing anyway.

 
The image was stamped with Black Stazon and colored with markers and a combination of Aqua painter and blender pen.  It was then die cut using the labels framelit, which was matted with Cherry Cobbler card stock.  Before matting, I pricked around the outer edge and sponged with Crumb cake ink and a stiple brush. The berries were highlighted with Cherry cobbler dazzling details.
This unit was attached to a piece of Whisper white cardstock that had been double embossed with the starburst embossing folder and Iridescent ice embossing powder with dimensionals.
The embellishment was made using silver glitter paper and the new snowflake die.

Stamps: Winter Memories, Petite Pairs
Inks: Black Stazon, SU markers, Versa Mark, Crumb Cake
Papers: Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Candlelight Christmas designer paper, Whisper White, Silver glitter paper
Accessories: Starburst embossing folder, Labels framelits, Snowflake die, 1 3/4 by 7/8" oval punch, Word window punch, Small oval punch, Cherry cobbler dazzling details, large pearl, Aqua painter, blender pen, mat pack & paper piercer, scallop border punch (inside)
