Alright, let’s get to how I put this card together!
I started by coloring my image from Snow One Like You with Copic Markers, and then cutting it out using the coordinating dies. i set the image aside for later.
Using the largest die from the Stitched Rectangles Die Set #1, I die cut the Turquoise Background with Snowflakes print from the Winter Wonderland Paper Pad. Using the 2nd largest die, I die cut (2) panels of blending cardstock. On one panel, I blended it, from top to bottom, in the following Distress Oxide Inks: Shaded Lilac, Wilted Violet, Villainous Potion and Chipped Sapphire. I spritzed this panel with water, for bleach spots, dried them, misted the panel with water, and processed it through my die cutting machine inside of the Snowy Day Embossing Folder. I then splattered the panel with white acrylic paint and let it dry.
Note: the white acrylic paint ended up taking on a lot of the purple ink from the background. This wasn’t my intention, but I did enjoy how it turned out! So YAY for happy accidents!
For the 2nd panel, I ink blended the bottom portion with Tumbled Glass & Salty Ocean Distress Ink. I spritzed with water for bleach marks, dried it, and then cut the panel where I stopped ink blending. I adhered this layer directly on top of the Snowy Day embossed background. I then adhered this entire unit to a slightly larger piece of white cardstock to get a frame. I finalized my layers by then adhering the framed unit on to the Winter Wonderland Paper Stitched Die Cut, and adhering the final unit to an A2-sized card base.
Using the Frosting Embossing Powder, I heat embossed the sentiment “I’m snow glad were friends” on Barbershop Cardstock, and trimmed it down to sentiment strip.
I used foam tape to adhere my image and sentiment strip to my panel, and then finished off the card with some Snowy Day Glitter Enamel Dots!
