For this round of Christmas cards I tried a little different idea, I have seen lots of cards using layers to create snowdrifts with images layered on top so I though I would give it a try. The first card is an older image from CC Designs that I have had for a few years and never got to inking up. For the snowdrifts I used the Lawn Fawn Hillside border die and then used the opposite end for the second card. The background was created with Tim Holtz distress ink pads in the mini size and I coloured the image with Copics and popped it up. The sentiment is from an older set that I got from CC Designs more than three years ago, it was an Amy R set.
I created this one using the same basic tools as the first card and then added a different image with some little white snowflakes in the background. The snowflakes were an add on idea later and led to the realization that I needed a new white ink pad - of course I had already stamped the first snowflake when I realized the pad was just about dead. Luckily the stamping still turned out pretty good.
