Daily Special - Christmas in September
Yo! Everyone!! Check out this stamp. It's pretty funky. I had bought it on Ebay long, long ago and I initially thought wow, what a weird group of snowmen. . .especially, the first one. . .her hair looks rather "fried". . .she needs to see her hairdresser.
It's a stamp from some obscure company. I initially thought to myself . . ."why did I buy this stamp?" but it's grown on me. . .I actually think the snowmen are cute now and really glad I bought the stamp.
I colored the images using the Prismacolor markers then applied SU Crystal Effects. Do anybody still use dimensional glazes on their cards like Crystal Effects? I love the stuff. I like how it makes the images 3D looking and shiny. It's also a good way to cover ugly coloring. Haha! If your coloring turned out a little messy, just add a dimensional glaze over it and it actually looks okay after you apply it. To create the 3D snow, I used Liquid Applique and puffed it up using a heating tool. Before heating it, I added glitter to it while it was still wet. It's amazing that the little things you do to a card can add "excitement" to what would have been otherwise a drab looking card.

I absolutely love this stamp and your complete card design. I'm a huge fan of any kind of snow people, so I'm going to be on the look out for this one.

I think the snowmen are great, such fun. A lovely card too!
What a super cute card! They are quite the unusual bunch of snow people but cute non-the-less! That first one is definitely having a bad hair day!

This is really a fun card. The snowmen are really different but I like them (even the one with the "fried" hair!). Great card. Ida
