Frosty The Snowman


Hi everyone, this week for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing with you a vintage styled Christmas card using one of our latest released Snowflake dies which comes in a set of 2.


I started by cutting out my Snowflakes in white cardstock and then sprayed Adhesive on to them and added extra fine Glitter. This way you get a lovely smooth finish that doesn't show any lumps of glue. I cut them in half and added to the corners of my first layer.


My Snowman I added Snowtex on to his body and an accent on to his hat and whilst still wet I poured some extra fine glitter over them. The embellishments were coloured with Copics and a little Distress ink at the edges for definition to the Snowman's body.


My Snowflower was glittered in the same way, layering twice and adding a Gumdrop. My Pine Branches were coloured with  Copics and Glitter added for an extra frosty look. 

Merry Christmas was heat embossed with Red Tinsel Embossing Powder.

Thanks for stopping by today.

    Your card is stunning Julie! I love the glittery snowflower and the snowman looks nicely 'rounded' with the Snowtex. The image of the children is so beautiful - a very elegant and beautiful card. Hugs, Anne xx
