Today we were to put snowflakes on our cards. I had drawn this leaning snowman for a sketch challenge but never got around to using him. So today I did. I had to lean the card back for the photo to get a good shot of all the shine.
For the bg, I put several punched snowflakes on white cs then brayered blue acrylic paint over top. Removed the flakes and doodled them.
To shine up Frosty, I painted on some acrylic ice glaze. I doodled the white card sides and image panel sides popping up the image panel over the bg.
Well there you have it, a card with snowflakes AND a snowman who happens to be drinking hot chocolate. Hope he doesn't spill it! hehe......TFL :0)
