Snowmen

Hi everyone, yay sunshine....what better way to celebrate than to make a Christmas card??!!!
 I've printed the image onto self adhesive vellum and coloured it with Promarkers. I added some Glamour Dust to the centre smowman's hate, the right hand snowman's bobble and the snow they're standing on. The backing paper is from my scrap box and edged with a Martha Stewart punch. I've matted the corner using mirri board, which I also matted the image with. I embossed a piece of vellum with snowflakes and added peeloff accents to the centres. The red panel is pearlescent but it doesn't show up very well in the photo. I've added snowflakes and peeloffs from my stash and finished off with a couple of strips of glitter and a wooden snowman.

    I have adhesive vellum and have never used it. I think you have inspired me to give it a try! And I love the embossed vellum strip. I've seen this several times this week and am definitely going to have to give it a try. Thanks for playing with CSAYL.
