Things I changed:
1. stamp sets
2. colors
3. placement of snowflakes
4. tied ribbon differently
I used Copic markers C1, C3, C5, C7, BV29, RV23, and R59 to color the snowman.
I used Old Olive reinker and Barely Banana, Bashful Blue, and Brocade blue stamp pads for the trees and sky.
The snow on the ground is white craft ink embossed with white embossing powder.
This card is also for a Double Dare Challenge I do with a group of friends. Francie G. challenged us to use bleaching on our card. I chose to bleach the snowflakes on the pink cardstock. Thanks for the challenge Francie as I've always been a bit nervous working with bleach.
TFL!

This winter card has so many details to absorb...I could be here all day Charlene, just trying to figure out your colors for this little snowman! (thank you for posting them on here and telling me how you achieved this look.)
This is one cheery card, and almost looks like he's doing a snow angel face first, and so happy about it too~ Thanks for sharing your creativity Charlene!!
