Blogger Challenge: Week 233

This week’s blogger challenge theme is Frosty and Friends. I combined the challenge with this week’s Our Craft Lounge challenge to create a clean and simple holiday card to come up with this seasonal card.

I used images from two of OCL’s Crafty Singles sets, Mr. Frosty and Frosty Flakes, to create my scene. Mr. Frosty is set on a hill made from layered shimmery white cardstock pieces with torn edges for texture. To add dimension, I stamped the snowman image directly on the cardfront and again on a piece of white cardstock. I used Copic markers to color the white cardstock snowman, then attached him to the scene with foam tape.

The snowflakes are stamped around the snowman in white ink. For a little sparkle, I added a dot of Stickles to the center of each flake. The sentiment from the Winter Wishes set is stamped in red along the bottom of the card.
