I combined the lovey-dovey pair of snowpeople with two designs from my still-favourite Specialty Designer Paper from the Holiday Catalogue: the Feels Like Frost paper. What I love is that one side of the two-sided paper has a photographic image on it while the other side has a pattern in white on silver foil. I decided that the foil with the random white dots was perfect as a background for the pretty "snowfall" image. And, of course, the snowpeople look perfect against the colours as well.
After stamping the image using my black Memento ink, I fussy-cut it and then proceeded to colour it using my Stampin' Blends. I used the Pretty Peacock, Basic Black, Highland Heather, Soft Suede, Purple Posy, Old Olive, and Poppy Parade. You can't really tell, unfortunely, since the camera didn't catch it, but I added some of the Wink of Stella to both of the snowpeople. The die-cut sentiment is from a fun set of dies with which I was gifted (lucky me, since it works perfectly for this card).
My base is the Heavy Whisper White while the matte is the Pretty Peacock. I love how this card turned out, don't you?
