Fun challenge today! I love making snow/snowmen cards. After I stamped the cute Umbrella Snowman w/ Memento & colored with Copics, I overstamped w/ Versafine (it was still in my Misti), then die cut w/ a little out of the box to keep from cutting the umbrella. I then die cut it again using the next smallest die, brayered the cut off frame then put it back.
The stripes on the front were embossed on an angle & just on the one corner for a little interest (this is actually the back side or debossed side of the folder). The partial I Love Snow greeting was stamped onto a pennant which was colored around the edges w/ Copics & the die cut Snow was added below. The extra snowflakes were die cut from the Snow die.The largest layer was also brayered & stamped on top w/ the Beaded String bg.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, what a sweet, sweet snowman. I love, love, love the mixture of colors for his scarf. It makes it look really fluffy. I also love the word snow with the snowflake in it.
