Winter WLSC

 Hi Everyone, my second DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme of  

Winter

   

 

What could be more Winter than a snowman? So that's what I went with, a favourite happy Snowman. I stamped the snowman and made a mask of him, then stamped the stones either side of him and made a mask of them. With the masks in place, I blended the background with DO's. Then using a snow stencil to add snowflakes, added a touch of water to the ink, but it spread a little, so I added some Stickles for sparkle onto the snowflakes. Next, the stones were coloured and the snowman, adding more sparkle to the snow. I also added 3D gloss to his nose. 

 

Next, I stamped a couple of snowflakes and the sentiment and die cut the sentiment. They were layered onto a blue card which has gold through it. The image was attached to the base card following the CAS #334 sketch.
