I donÂ’t need more Christmas cards but just had to use this snowman for the first time and decided it will make the perfect winter card for my granddaughter who loves to get mail!
Copic markers: hat – C10,9,8,7,6,3, blender, band – G29,28,24, (also for scarf) - R89,59,39,29, blender, coal – C10,8,7,1, carrot – YR18,68, blender, arm twigs – C5,6, bird – B29,28,26, blender, YR14, nest – E33,31, background shading – B21,0000, blender
Diamond Stickles was applied to the snowline and blue snowflake circles.
Fiskars snowflake border punch was used to cut the small borders which are glued on with AleeneÂ’s tacky glue.
Perfect Paper Crafting Tools:
For stamping the envelope I used the Perfect Tears ruler with the center finder feature as a guide for placing/stamping my snowflakes. For those not familiar with this type of ruler: a zero is centered on the ruler with the same numbers going out to each side, line up your project so the same measurement is on each edge. So I evenly stamped at 0 and each 2 then stamped the image going off the edge at the two 1Â’s and each corner. CouldnÂ’t get any easier!

I also used the Perfect Layers 1/16” ruler to cut the green border.
The image panel with green border is popped up with foam tape.
