The one thing I don’t miss in my life is snow. The closest I get to snow is stamping a snowman and some glittery snowflakes on a card. I think of my friends up north often and love to send them warm thoughts from South Carolina this time of the year when I know they’re pulling out their boots, scarves and winter coats. I hope they have fun building snowmen in the front yard!
Skill: Beginner
Time: 1 hour
Directions

Step 1
Stamp image on a piece of cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black. Spray panel with Sheer Shimmer Spritz in Frost and let dry.

Step 2
Color in parts of the image with Memento Markers. Apply StazOn Studio Glaze to heart, buttons, scarf, eyes, nose and hat.

Step 3
Color the sky with Memento Summer Sky and blend with a baby wipe. Dry with heat tool.

Step 4
Stamp small snowflakes onto the background with VersaMark, then brush white Mica Powder over the snowflakes. Stamp larger snowflakes on background againwith VersaMark, but apply clear embossing powder and melt with heat tool. Apply a small drop of On Point Glue to the centers of snowflakes and sprinkle a tiny bit of Glass Glitter to each spot.
Step 5
Ink edges with Delicata Silvery Shimmer. Adhere the decorated panel to black cardstock, patterned paper and attach to blank card. Tear a piece of scrap red paper and adhere to card. Tear a scrap piece of foil on top of the red paper. Stamp the phrase “Thoughts Of You Warm My Heart” on white cardstock scrap, ink edges, apply pop dots to the phrase and glue to the top of the foil piece.
