After stamping & coloring my holiday snowman, I stamped the plaid background onto light red cardstock w/ black ink then used a few darker red Copics to add a little tone variation. I die cut both panels then used a curved border die to cut the bottom of the snowman panel. A couple of die cut buttons were added w/ a little glossy dimensional glaze added on top of them. The greeting was a little too large, so I stamped it w/ Stazon on the front of a piece of shrink plastic, die cut it w/ a circle die & most importantly, punched the hole at the top before shrinking it w/ a heat gun. I used a G02 to color the backside before I shrunk it. It was barely even noticeable but look how much darker it became when shrunk. A little Stickles was added to the snow & icicles.
Thanks so much for looking, Closeups, Copic colors & product links are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Such a cute card! I love your coloring! The scarf looks wonderful the way you shaded it. I love the little tag. The card design is so pretty with the button embellishment!

I haven't pulled out shrink plastic in YEARS but what an awesome way to utilize a "too large" sentiment. Plus the outstretched arms on this adorable image were perfect for the extra decoration!
