Good Friday morning!  In my attempt to use some of my old snowmen stamps, I ran into an image that I have never colored before.  Not only have I not colored it, I don’t even have the stamp.  My sister, Carrie, is a Longaberger collector and has made numerous trips to the the factory.  One year she was so excited when she found a rubber stamp in the shop and she bought it.   Even though I wish Carrie would stamp with me, she is not a stamper but a cross-stitcher.  When she showed me the stamp, I stamped out numerous images and then gave the stamp back to her.  I had forgotten all about those images until the other day.  I was going through a box of old images looking for snowmen, snowballs, whatever I could find, when I ran across the Garden Snowman.  I did a Google search looking the stamp, but came up empty-handed.  I didn’t even come across the coasters that Carrie also purchased that day.

Anyhoo, here’s my second snowman card of the year.

The image was colored with Copic Markers and then I applied a light coat of Ranger Rock Candy Stickles on the snowman.  For the snow at the bottom, I used Tulip White Puffy Paint that was painted on with a paint brush and then heat set to puff.  I was super excited when I was digging through my button stash and found the old red button.  It’s cracked and distressed and I knew it would make a perfect embellishment.
