Forever by Your Side - KSS - Let's Make a Scene 087

In honor of several of my friends who are currently buried knee-deep in snow, I have created another wintery Valentine. This Let's Make a Scene design sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps features the swans from Love Birds and this sweet, sweet sentiment from Love 4 Ducky & Teddy. It has been a while since I have stamped with the swans. I think this might be the last Let's Make a Scene design I made with a swan and it had an autumn theme.

Layer 1 was not stamped. I cut a mask of Layer 1 and covered the birds to preserve the white while sponging on the water with Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass.
