I had so much fun making this card. I wanted to do a dark snow night background and was very pleased with how it turned out. I added some white flock by Martha Stewart to the little girls outfit and on the snow bank and it also has a touch of glitter that didn't quite show up in the picture.
The image background was colored with Copic Marker BG75 and I added snow with a white gel pen. The rest of the image was colored as follows:
Girls Shoes, Coat & Hat: YG91, YG93, YG95
Girls Pants & Snowman's Hat & Scarf: E41, E42, E43, E44
Berries & Snowman's Scarf: R24, R27, R29
Snowman: W0, W1
Snowman Nose: YR12, YR15
The image on this card is a digi from the Whimsy and Stars Studio Etsy store found HERE.
The background was embossed with a Sizzix embossing folder and the sentiment is from an old Stampin' Up set and was first stamped with Versa Mark then embossed with gold detail embossing powder from Stampendous using a heat gun.
I added the pearls and the rhinestones and then popped up the image using one of my favorite secrets. I have kept all of my leftover rubber from triming my wood block Stampin' Up sets over the years and use it to pop up images on my cards by peeling off the rubber and the paper and using my glue gun (could use glue dots as well) on the non sticky side. I think this works better than the actual pop dots and is certainly less expensive!
Anyways, I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!
Big Hugs & Happy Holidays!
