This sketch was a challenge for me because I rarely use as many layers as I did for this project. It was easy to add texture with my dotted white background and the Flower Soft snowy ground. A second snowman was cut out and pieced over the original image and a scarf was cut from a third snowman and layered. I worked for quite a while to try and get my sparkly Iridescent Ice embossed green trees, scarf and buttons to show well in my photo but it just didn't work. You will just have to take my word for it that it is there and shows off sweetly IRL. I thought the little tree image worked so well with the BasicGrey tree designer paper. I aded white embossing powder to the ground area of the little scene and embossed with white ep to lay a perfectly white background for the white snowy Flower Soft. The cranberry bow is just the perfect little embellishment to bring out the color of the tiny snowman scarf and buttons.
