This is for Joyce's fun CAS challenge - Snowmen. This was the quickest card I think I have ever made. Print image, outline the tree branch and decorations with blue copic, then fussy cut.
Colour with Tria Markers by Letraset, add white dots with a Sharpie paint pen. Cut legs off.
I bought some Project Life cards on sale, the card has a lovely linen texture and is great for die cutting and card bases. Scored the lower half, stuck on some Christmas washi tape, adhered the snowmans legs below the tape and his body, above the tape.
I kept looking at this and thinking something was wrong. I have never seen a snowman in real life (you know what I mean) anyway I went ahead and took his picture and here he is.
As I was thinking of a name for my card I realised his nose is missing, I have decided to leave it as it is. Just think of nose as a parsnip not a carrot.
Thank you for looking and have a terrific week ladies.

Adorable snowman! Wish I could send you a real one, Susie. I suppose there will be many showing up in yards around here in the next few days. They're much cuter on paper - believe me! I love his parsnip nose!

DArling! I love that his nose isn't colored and he has the longest legs ever. This is super fun Susie! Hugz

I just had my first parsnip this past weekend. Yum! I would not have known had I not seen one IRL what you were talking about - LOL! Super job on this adorable snowman image and I love the extra time you took adding the white dots too.

CUTE CUTE CUTE
Those legs are sure eye-catching, now I know it reminded me of a digi I once bought, The Catching Snow snowman, but couldn't remember the place I bought it from. Thanks to your additional info I found the place: Sassy Cheryl.
