My girlfriend had gotten me a big SSS 6 x 8 stamp set (Warmest Wishes) for my birthday with lots of different snowmen images and trees in it, and I had only used one image from it so far, so figured it was time to get it out and have a play! Here's what I came up with...
Aren't they adorable with their fun hats and scarves?!! I stamped the trees first with Evening Evergreen & Soft Succulent inks (SU!) and then gave them a nice coating of glitter. I added a torn strip of cs to the bottom that I lightly blended with some ink leftover on my turquoise blending brush, and then added a layer of glitter to that also. I also lightly blended some of the leftover ink over my background to give a cool wintry feeling to the card.
Next I stamped, colored (Copics G21 & BG13), and fussy cut two of the snowmen from the SSS Warmest Wishes set and added them to my card front, popping up with foam tape the smaller snowman. My sentiment is an oldie but a goody from PTI's Think Big Favorites: #20 stamp set. I added a few small details to the snowmen with a white gel pen, and then called it done! Simple but cute, and one more done for the Christmas card stash!

How cute are they! Love the little bashful fella hiding behind his polka dot scarf! I MISS seeing Downton on a regular basis. Love the movies and can't wait to see the new one!
Such an adorable winter scene and I too love those cute little hats on the snow people x. Big fan of Downton my end too Marcia x.
So cute, Marcia!! While I'm not ready to live in your winter scene, I do think it's darling. Great job on the glistening snow!! So glad you got through to the final show on Netflix before it ended. I will have to wait for the movie to come on tv.
I still have a few sessions to catch up on so hope it is still on Netflix here in New Zealand. I totally adore your card, snowmen are just the cutest <3
Not only are these snow people fantastic but the background with the trees and light inking set the stage beautifully! Another great Christmas card, my friend!
So adorable Marcia. I LOVE your sweet snow couple. Lovely trees and snow in the background and a fabulous sentiment to boot! :) I agree with you about Downton Abbey, I just started watching the series for the third time a couple of days ago. Bing watching is the way I roll too ... I'm already on season 3. :) Thankfully it's still available for us here and hopefully it will be in another year when I'll probably watch it again. :)
Fabulous scene Marcia. The snowpeople are so cute in their winter wonderland.
