Directions:

  • Cut base to 4 1/4 x 11 (Crumb Cake)
  • Next layer in Crumb Cake run through the Big Shot with the Wood Grain Embossing Folder
  • Elegant Eggplant Mat cut to3 1/2 x 4 1/4
  • Plaid piece make with a piece of  Crumb Cake Card Stock cut to 4 x 5 1/2 and this is how you make it. Brayer on Elegant Eggplant to the top inside of the Stripes Embossing Folder…lay your crumb cake piece inside and run through the Big Shot. Rinse off the Stripes EF and now brayer on some Always Artichoke and lay the cad stock in going the other direction. Viola’ you have plaid or checkered background paper!
  • Now for the image piece. Cut your Crumb Cake to 2 3/8 x 3 1/4 . Stamp in Stazon (Black). Color the snowman with an aqua painter and white ink. Just lift right off of your White pad to do this. It give the snowman just enough color to make him pop off the page.
  • I used the aqua painter and the other ink pads to color in the rest of the image.
  • My bow of course is done with my very fav ribbon the Crumb Cake Seam Binding and my Magic Bow Maker. It’s available for purchase at the top of my blog

Hi Lee! What a happy snowman! I love how you colored on crumb cake card stock and made your cozy checkered pattern. It reminds me of flannel pj's! And you used two colors I've forgotten about too. This is a beautiful card! Thanks for sharing.
