For my card today, I am using the new stamp set Frosty Friends, and the Snowflake Window Die. I started out by die cutting my pieces that I would be using on my card, and the Snowflake Window is die cut from some Sno Cone Card Stock. I also die cut a piece of Silver Sparkle card stock from one of the Stitched Mini Scallop Rectangle dies, and a piece of white card stock using the largest scalloped rectangle from the Blueprints 27 die set. The banner piece also comes from Blueprints 27! Such a all around versatile die set! I set those pieces aside as well as my Summer Splash card base, and I worked on my snowman. I like images this as they are super easy to add color!
I stamped my snowman in Extreme Black ink, and used my Copic Markers to add a bit of color. I used BG10 to add some shadow around the left side of his body and blended it out with my Colorless Blender. I used YR09 and YR18 for his nose, RV17 and RV19 for his scarf and gloves, R20 for a little rosy cheek and a small amount of C2 around the scarf where it lays on his body to create a bit of shadow.
I assembled all of my elements together with liquid adhesive and added foam adhesive to add dimension to my snowman. For my sentiment, I stamped it using the same black extreme ink, and adhered it to my card with foam adhesive as well. To finish my card off, I used my white gel pen, and added some white polka dots to my snowman's scarf for a bit of interest!
