All Snow and Sparkle.

Hello there Friends, Followers and Visitors,

Hope you have all had a happy, relaxing weekend.   Tonight my card is a Christmas card which was made for Imagination Craft's last show on the Hochanda T.V. Channel  on the 5th. & 6th. July 2016.  I don't think it actually got an airing, so here it is.   This happy little snowman is just so...cute, another beautiful Art stamp from Imagination Crafts.

  
Take the 7"x7" white base card and stamp the large snowflake from the set of  Art stamp snowflakes, around all four edges, using a black ink pad.   I just love the intricate detail on these snowflake stamps, so beautiful.

Matt a smaller square of black card onto the base card, leaving some of the stamped snowflakes showing.

  
Cut a smaller square of white card onto the black, leaving approximately half an inch of the black showing.   Next, cut  a smaller square of white card and colour the edges with the red Promarker pen and matt this onto the white square.

Take some white card and stamp the snowman onto it using the black ink pad.   Do this twice.   Use the first image and glue onto the red square.   Colour the scarf, gloves and wreath on the second image with the promarker pens.      Add some Magi-bond glue to the snowman's head and body, avoiding the lines of the  stamped image, then add some Imagination's Cracked Ice  Glitter.  Gently press the glitter into the glue, then brush away the excess.

        
When the glue has dried, cut out the snowman and  glue the sparkly snowman on top of the original image, using silicone glue, to give some dimension to the card.

     
Add more glue and cracked ice glitter to the snow  around the snowman.   Colour  three silk  ivy leaves with the green Promarker pen and glue in the bottom left corner.   Add a small red ribbon bow below the ivy leaves.

Well that's all from me tonight my friends,  I'll be back again soon, so I hope to see you all then.   In the meantime, I do hope you all have a good week.   Thanks ever so much for visiting my blog, hope you have enjoyed your visit.
