Sneak Peek parties are always fun, and the party continues for the September releases at Inspired By Stamping. Today we highlight Build A Snowman. He's so stinkin' cute!
On a white card base, I sponged on a blue sky, and created snowy hills from more white cardstock and glitter, of course. A sentiment from Festive Frames was stamped on the snow.
On a scrap of white cardstock, I stamped the snow man's body, used a Copic marker to create shadows, and trimmed it out. On the card base, I stamped his twig arms with brown ink. The hat was stamped in pear green, trimmed, and a slit made in the cuff so I could fit it onto his head. There's glitter on the hat and the snow guy, too. I created the face and added a sweet heart to his torso.
Squeak! I felt pretty darned creative about this branch, which is actually snowman arms joined together. The "berries" are created with a stamp that could also be used as a snowman nose, or buttons. The little sign is part of the set, too.
