After I photographed this card I realized I hadn't quite finished it, It looks better outlined with a grey copic pen and 3D lacquer on the nose and coal buttons. I am famous for getting ahead of myself! I drew the texture on the scarf with a black micropen.....all those hours I spent trying to learn Zentangle finally paid off. I colored scarf and hat by scribbling distress markers on my craft mat and picking up the color with an aqua pen. I will probably make some other colors of "Snowy" just because I love him so. By the way, after getting him all flocked and colored I turned him over on a thick rubber mat, spritzed him "O so lightly" with water and used a ball stylus to push out his colored hat, scarf, nose, buttons and arms. Just a little touch that doesn't really show up in the picture but makes him look a little 3D in person.

Thanks for the stylus tip...brilliant. Beverley Sue every thing about Snowy is perfect. I love that you jazzed up his hat and scarf - I thought it was all in the stamp. This is absolutely fabulous my friend. TFS

How do you get the square around Snowy to be raised? The the paper piercing, but it looks like there is a square around him and the whole thing is raised up.
