Friday Mashup with Snowmen

For the latest Friday Mashup challenge the lovely ladies over there said make a snowman card!! I promised my friend Holly that I would really try to get myself back into challenges again so today, after I got some Thanksgiving stuff ready, I sat down to get a card done.

Friday Mashup!

Its the end of November in southcentral Alaska so you think I'd have enough snow to make a snowman. Well, if the snowman was to be made of ice it would be no problem. This week we were hit with an ice storm and we were stuck in the house Mon and Tues, with schools cancelled Tues and today. Tomorrow we're supposed to get snow and colder temps again so its just going to make driving horrendous. Thank goodness we never go anywhere for Thanksgiving!

Anyway, for this card I used one of my all-time favorite snowman sets, Flaky Friends. These snowmen are just too cute! The card base is Garden Green, and I used some Candy Cane Christmas DSP also. The image and sentiment are both stamped on Whisper White. I used a glue pen and Dazzling Diamonds to create a little layer of snow below the snowmen. The sentiment is popped up with dimensionals and in person it gives it a really nice look that the camera just doesnt pick up.




Supplies(all supplies SU unless otherwise noted):
Stamps- Flake Friends, Many Merry Messages
Paper- Garden Green, Whisper White, Candy Cane Christmas DSP
Ink- Black StazOn, Real Red
Accessories- Various SU markers, Real Red ribbon, Dazzling Diamonds, sponge, dimensionals
