golfing snowman

https://peaceonearthchristmas.blogspot.com/

Thanks to one of my stamping buddies, I was able to do a Golf related Christmas card as requested by a friend. I used this image because I found it so cute although all of the images I received from this lovely buddy are great and will be used eventually.

What I did with this snowman involved a bit of fussy cutting which was pretty easy. I took the stamped image and photocopied it onto some card stock several times so I could cut out all the parts I wanted. I coloured in each snowman exactly the same before cutting. Each layer of the snowman was popped up with foam tape. Firstly I cut the top half of the body, including the golf club and then I cut only the head and scarf section. The snowman layer was added to some CS that is similar in colour to the blues used on hat and scarf. I added some snow hills at the bottom and part of a Sizzix holly berry garland at the top after I had adhered it to the dry embossed card front. The other half of the garland is on the inside panel. The sentiment is from an old Kaiser set and I cut it in half so I could stack as shown.

I think layering each section of the snowman onto the original stamped image has given it quite a realistic look and I’m quite pleased with the end result. It does look better in reality than on the photo, but photography skills aren’t my forte.

The card is being added to the following challenge:

Anything goes Christmas challenge.

Thanks for taking a look. I know your time is precious so I appreciate that you spend some of it with me.
