I live vicariously through my card scenes. Since it doesn't snow at my house, even tho it gets pretty cold,I miss having to shovel the sidewalk like I did when I lived in Denver. But it has been quite awhile since I shoveled a walk, that I might have a different opinion now! LOL So today, I decided to have some type of snow image for my card. Kind of fun making snow cards while I am still wearing shorts to work! I just got my new Charlie Snowhorse image and here is what I did........
Stamped Charlie on a rectangle versa marking and clear ep him. Colored with Faber Castel Pens, shaded with acrylic paint. Stamped his head again on another scrap of white cs, colored and cut out using my circle coluzzle.
Sponged another rectangle with Denim. Cut out another, only larger circle. Sponged with Barely Banana. Cut out a larger rectangle of dp, ran it through the dotted swiss cb folder, sanded off the dots so they looked like snow flakes.
Stamped the sentiment, cut out using circle coluzzle. Sponged edges of all white cs parts, doodled them too.
Put all my parts together on a white card sponged with Distress Ink Tea Dye. Doodled the edges too. Well, hope you like it........if you decide to leave a comment....Thanks in advance, I so appreciate them all!!!!......TFL :0)

This is too cute! Love the colors and fun image! Great spotlighting, too! We're still in shorts this week in NC, but that's bound to change soon! Gorgeous color here, though, and that I missed when in CA! Will never miss the big snow!
