Snowman Christmas Card

When I made Christmas cards last year, I had a lot of extra parts.  I decided to use some of them this year.  This is one of the cards made with the leftovers (the snowman and the background).  Making this card was easy, since the hardest parts were done last year!

I used the following to make the card:

• Tim Holtz - Holiday Knits Stamp
• Distress Oxide Ink - Lucky Clover and Cracked Pistachio
• Zing - Clear Embossing Power
• Versmark
• Stampendous - Detail White Embossing Powder
• Copic Markers
• Gina K - Snowone Like You Stamp Set
• Lawn Fawn - Merry Messages Stamp Set

To make the card,  I stamped the background image with Versamark, added the clear embossing powder and heat set it.  The two green Distress Oxide inks were then added with the lighter color at the top of the panel, blending to the darker color.  The snowman was stamped and colored with various Copic markers, and then cut out with a circle die.  The background panel and snowman were both matted with green card stock.  The sentiment was stamped with Versmark, white embossing added and heat set.  The strip was cut to size and added to the panel along with the snowman to complete the card.
