I penciled in a date with Frosty. I like to combine the two Monday challenges when I can because of lack of time. I'd seen this Christmas card that had a drawing of a snowman, done very loosely with what could have been pencil. So I decided to give it a go. I did cheat a bit and use coins for tracing; but then I added some more pencil lines, just to make it a little messier (kind of like Pigpen's snowman). But then I jazzed it up a bit with some glitter, just to give him some pizazz. I only go out with snowmen who have pizazz. I tore paper for snow and added some glitter to the edges. I probably should have put some arms and a hat on the guy but I figure that he'll want to hug me when he drops me off after the date and that might be chilly. I'm silly because I'm not sure this whole thing works that well together, but I did the challenges. I do like the sketch a lot, I'll have to try something else later.

Wow, I was really looking at your snowman, trying to figure out how you got that look - pencil tracing around coins - clever! I like your torn paper snowbanks and the snowflake bling!
