Snow Baby


 Hello, another dull damp day here, I'm full of cold and a bit grumpy so I'm hiding in my craft room and keeping nice and warm...and not spreading my germs around to anyone else (husband doesn't count as he's the one who gave it me and he was a LOT more grumpy than I am!).

I've been playing along with Beccy's month of  Holiday Challenges, it's a great way to get some Christmas cards done. No way will I get 30 cards made to enter every day as some dedicated entrants seem to be achieving but I'll do as many as I can. This one is for Day 4, letter D - it has decoupage and dimension. The image is one of Beccy's Freebies, Snowman with Bauble, so cute, I think he looks like a Snow Baby!

I used the uncoloured version and printed him 3 times, coloured relevant sections with markers and then cut them out and layered them up with foam to create the dimension. I've used stickles to glitter up his hat and the bauble. The card design is very simple, an embossed strip down the centre, glittery frame and die cut sentiment.

Thanks for visiting

Chris

I absolutely love the way you've coloured and constructed the image Chris, you've done an incredible job! The dimension is awesome. The deep blue is beautiful and I love the addition of the glitter. Gorgeous!!
Cheers,

He is so cute and I love the added glitter Chris. Sorry to hear your darling hubby gave you the cold lol. There is a lot about. I have been fighting off the starts of it from my jabs and so far it stays around for a day then buggers off. Unfortunately it does keep trying again!!
