For the sketch today and another card for Monday's TLC I used Stamper Dog's Faux Silk with a Pop tutorial.
A2 base, navy card, corners rounded with corner chomper. I took a long narrow strip of blue card and stamped it several times with the snowflakes from Merry and Bright and embossed with silver EP.
I stamped the snowman image (Merry and Bright is missing from my Christmas stamp box so I need to tidy, I used another snowman instead) on the tissue and on a scrap of white paper. After scrunching and unrolling the tissue I carefully stuck the cut-out white snowman on the back of it, and then attached the tissue to my snowflake panel with spray mount. Sponged the edges with red and blue, added the punched border and attached to base.See-Ds sentiment stamped on a label punched from the same card as the border, edges sponged with blue and attached with a brad and ribbon.
