HEY FRIENDS! I love snowmen, so expect to see plenty of them from me this season. Today I’m using Snow Family, another vintage (but still available) Penny Black stamp. The coordinating die makes layering easy. As you can see, I’m channeling my inner Jill Foster!

Coloring the Image
I stamped the snowmen in Memento Ink (Tuxedo Black) on OLO Marker Blending Card and colored them with Copic markers, listed below. Because the stamp is wood mounted, I couldn’t use my stamp positioner. For a crisp impression, ink the stamp fully, press down firmly, and hold it a few extra seconds so the ink transfers. After coloring, I cut out the image with the coordinating die.
Creating the Background
I created the background by inking a rectangular stencil from the Background Basics Stencil Set with Distress Oxide Ink in Tumbled Glass. The sentiment, from the Christmas Moments stamp set, was stamped in Versafine Clair in Nocturne. The card base is Accents Opaque cardstock, and I cut two frames from the same paper with the Whirl die set, adhering them together for added dimension. The snowflake accent was cut with a die from the Snow Family Cut out Dies set. The layers were assembled as shown.
That’s all for today! Hope you enjoyed today’s project. See you next time!
