Today I am featuring the Smitten Mittens Stamp Set, Many Mittens Framelits Dies and three sets of the brand new Stampin' Blends: Pink Pirouette, Rich Razzleberry and Pool Party. For the coloring on this card- I used both light and dark variations of the Stampin' Blends as well as the Color Lifter.
Stampin’ Up!’s premier alcohol markers, Stampin’ Blends are high-quality, dual-tip markers that come in 12 of Stampin’ Up!’s exclusive colors, each with a light and dark shade. Maybe you don’t think of yourself as an artist, but you don’t need to be because these markers make it super easy to blend colors and create gorgeous works of art!

Upon first glance- you may think that I used Pink Pirouette Card Stock for the mittens but I didn't! The new Stampin' Blends are alcohol based markers so their colors combine perfectly and don't really show streaks.
I first began by cutting out 2 mittens using the Big Shot, Many Mittens Framelits Dies and some Whisper White Card Stock. After the mittens were cut out- I began to color using the Light Pink Pirouette Stampin' Blend. I then carefully added shading around the outside edges of the mittens using the Dark Pink Pirouette Stampin' Blend. Next I blended the colors together using the Light Pink Pirouette Stampin' Blend. I repeated this process until I had the coloring just as I wanted it.
The mittens just wouldn't be complete without a pretty decoration! Again using the Many Mittens Framelits Dies and the Big Shot- I cut out 2 snowflakes from Whisper White Card Stock. I began to color them in using the Light Rich Razzleberry Stampin' Blend and then added shading using the Dark Rich Razzleberry Stampin' Blend. On the center of each snowflake "arm" I used the Color Lifter to remove some of the color.
