There is no doubt that Asela's Snowmen from this release are my ALL TIME FAVORITE! (and I am not just saying that!)
They are so adorable!
I used the reverse masking and typical masking technique to create this card.
1. Cut a Large Rectangle Scallop with a Nestibility die, ensuring that you cut it out of a piece of paper that is large enough to cover most of a card front.
2. Discard the cut rectangle and place the "frame" over the white card front panel.
3. Stamp the snowman image with Brilliance Pigment Ink by Tsukineko centered in the open rectangle. Set aside.
4. Stamp the snowman on a piece of masking paper (such as Ellipse by Judikins) or on a post-it note, making sure to position a portion of the image over the sticky part.
5. Cut out the image. I did this with the star as well.
6. Now place the cut out snowman and star over the stamped image on the card front.
7. For the next step I used the Copic Airbrush System with Light Grayish Cobalt - B95 marker and airbrushed the blue background, focusing extra ink on the edges of the scallop.
