Another card for last week's TLC. I'd stamped the little snowman on tissue last week and then mislaid the sheet of tissue, so I stamped it again for last week's card. Having found the sheet of tissue it was time to use it before it got buried again .
A2 navy card.
Background panel was stamped with Lovely as a Tree in Olympia Versafine Green and the snow from Merry and Bright (Encore Silver, silver EP). Snowman is from Just Celebrate. As well as stamping him on the tissue he was stamped on white card, which was stuck to the back of the tissue after crumpling and unfolding it. See Stamper Dog's Faux Silk with a POP tutorial for full details.
after sticking the tissue to the panel I coloured the snowman's scarf and hat, and added AppliGlue to the hat trim.
Edges sponged with blue, matted onto grey card.
Sentiment is Penny Black, stamped with Versamark and embossed with white EP.
I added 3 1/2" grey circles and some tiny snowflakes at the top. White card didn't match the EP, so I had to emboss a small strip of paper and then punch the flakes.

Wow! I love this faux silk scene! The colors on this card are beautiful! I love the little circles and snowflakes too as well as the stark white sentiment on the blue!
