Impression Obsession Challenge - Snowman

 

It's time for the December Impression Obsession Challenge.

The theme this month is 'Snowmen.'

I love, love, love this baby snowman, 

and just had to use him for my card today.

Baby Snowman SS954C

Winter Fenceline SS1194H 

Christmas Words CL1044 

 

How I made my card:

• On watercolor paper, I inked the Baby Snowman  with Hickory
  
  
  Smoke distress ink, and stamped him on the panel.  I water colored him, using distress inks as paint.
• I stamped the Winter Fenceline with Frayed Burlap and Hickory Smoke distress inks, and water colored it.
• I added some shadows and snowbanks with some blue and gray, and added the sky.
• Some white acrylic spattered on for snowflakes.
• I stamped the 'believe' word from the CL1044 Christmas Words clear set, then distressed the edges of the panel, and attached it to a green A2 card front.

That was it.  An easy card to paint, and I just adore this carefree little guy resting in the snow!
