Mery Christmas Snowmen

Hi there,

I created this Christmas Card using the fabulous Karten-Kunst Circulus8 stamping tool:

  • stamp the snowman, the mittens and the snowflake from the Karten-Kunst Mini Frames Winter set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black and VersaMagic Sea Breeze
  • color the images with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers and add highlights with a white gel pen
  • add some post marks and ink up the edges with Distress Oxide Ink Lost Shadow
  • cut out a square from vellum using one of the dies from the Karten-Kunst Square Card Designer set and layer the Karten-Kunst Mini-Rahmen Frohes Fest cut from grey cardstock on top
  • adhere the panel to a cardbase covered with patterned paper 

Have a wonderful Christmas.

Hugs,

  • let this thick layer of gesso dry thoroughly
