For Jeanne's Snowflake Time MIXed media challenge. The challenge gave me the spur to get my Guinness snowman made up into a card. He was cut from a can using a TH Bigz die, and stuck together with PinFlair glue. To sneak in the mixed media I already had some ink on the snowdrifts, I added Sharpies to colour his hatband, and used Versamark to coat the tin snowflakes with Iridescent Ice for sparkle. The background embossing is, I think, my TE snowfall folder, I did it a couple of weeks back and can't remember which one I used.
Sorry for the slight glare from his eyes, I was trying to capture the sparkle on the flakes .

Oh wow this is brilliant. I can't think of a more appropriate creation by a beer taster! You should put this on your own mantle piece Sabrina - I love it!

You have this soda can technique down to a beautiful science...love your Guinness snowman with his hat band and holly leaves...so lever! Indeed, all he needed was a simple background and your card is done! LOVELY, Sabrina!
