I took one snowman off the image since it was a bit wide. I intended to add twine and beads but to my dismay the twine would not go through them. I ended up stitching the beads over the twine which created a crooked mess. I picked it all off and finally settled for stitches but had way too many holes to cover. There are still some tiny holes that show since I could not cover them all. The image was colored with copics and pencils and masked before sponging color around them. Thanks for looking.

Nancy, you know I love these adorable snowmen. Your stitching and beads look great and the sponging really makes those snowmen pop. Super creation...even with one snowman missing. :-)

I don't know if I would have had the patience to do that stitching but I'm sure glad YOU did! I love your neutral palette. ...again I wouldn't have been able to stay away from colours! Love your style Lady!

You have an amazing talent for coloring with copics. The wood fence looks real and the snowmen have so much depth. The coloring behind the snowmen is beautiful. I still can't see the holes you mentioned. This is just a wonderful card.
