Creative Nugget: I began by stamping and coloring the snowman on a rectangle nestie with my trusty copics. The sparkly starburst shapes and snowdrifts were added. A second snowman was stamped on a scrap piece of paper, cut out, and popped up on top of the the first one. Eskimo Kisses DP was used for the background panels. I actually got my Sew Mini out for some real zig-zag stitching around the edges of each panel. A Martha Stewart snowflake border in Cherry Cobbler was added to the turquoise layer which was given some texture with the canvas impression plate. This was all added to a Cherry Cobbler layer and then to a Select White card base. A build-a-flake die, Maraschino Baker's Twine, and Star Dust Stickles were added to complete the card. Now...doesn't this card just make you think of winter?
This was such a fun and easy sketch to use...I know I will be using it again! Check the other marvelous creations by the Sugar Babies and give this one a try.
