I have 3 grandsons that LOVE hockey, and one of them had a birthday Monday! I'm still waiting for his present to get here! At least his card is done!!
This is Sassy Cheryl's digi, Hockey Sweep Snowman, colored with Copics, edges sponged with distress inks. I thought he'd look cute spotlighted and the sketch worked perfectly. For the base and layer, I used one of the markers in the snowman to match, just going around the edge of the cardstock.

I absolutely love this image, Dawn. I still remember that fabulous card you did with it a few years back. These colors could not be ordered any better for this card. (I shared your grandson's birthday on the 26th.)

Using the spotlight technique on this image was brilliant, as is your coloring of the image! Do they sweep the ice in Hockey? I have only watched a couple of times. I know they sweep in curling. Or maybe that is all the snowman had to play with, but I would think a broom would definitely be an advantage in getting the puck to go where you want it! lol
