And here's my take on it.. I pretty much stayed spot on with Mis Korin's Awesome Sketch..8-)
I saw this little Cutie at Stitchy Bear Stamps and thought he was just way too Adorable to pass up.. all bundled up in his little snow suit. I could help but chuckle out loud, so I had to snatch him up. 8-) Well, I printed him out onto Flourishes Classic White and did a little paper piecing for his snow suit and hat. I colored up the rest of him and added some shading too with my trusty Copics. I added a few emboss resist Flourishes snowflakes.. First I embossed my snowflakes with White EP and then very lightly sponged on a bit of Tumbled Glass Distress inks over top and created my Sweet snowy scene. I cut out and matted up my Sweet little fellow,with the help of my Classic Rectangles and Scalloped Rectangle Nesties sets and popped him up with a few dimensionals. For my Mats and BG layers I chose a combinations of kraft CS from my stash and dp's from MME's Holly Jolly collection. To finish it all up, Inked all my edges with Vintage Photo distress ink, I stamped my Hero Arts sentiment, which I can't seem to find in their store right now, with Memento Rich Cocoa onto a matted up die cut oval, added a bit of Ribbon from my stash, a touch of Stardust Stickles here and there, a fun little die-namic snowflakes topped with a cute little button, all tied up with some Yummy Bakers twine from MAD Stamper Finds. 8-)
