Hello Frosty Snowman from Polkadoodles Crafts for Merry Little Christmas Challenge #59 for November/December 2024

It has been quite a hectic few months, but for challenge #59 for November/December 2024 of the Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog we were given a chance to use an image from Polkadoodles. So I chose Hello Frosty Snowman and used some of my products from La-La Land Crafts!

Here is my card for this month:

I digitally printed Hello Frosty Snowman on to X-PressIt Blending Card and then die cut the image using the largest Scalloped Rectangles Die from La-La Land Crafts and then the sentiment is stamped and die cut from Chill Winter Season which was a Stamptember collaboration between Simon Says Stamp and La-La Land Crafts.

The image was coloured with the following Copics: 

• snowman - C00, C0, C1, C3, 0, E44, E47, E49, YR12, YR15, YR18
• bird - B91, B14, B16, B18
• hearts - R22, R24, R27, R39
• scarf - YG00, YG21, YG03, YG17
• sky - V000, V01, V04, V06, V09, BV00, BV13, B000, B00, B12, B23, B24, B37, B99, BG10, G000, G00, YG11, YG00, Y000, white gel pen, white PrismaColour pencil

The sentiment was stamped in Nautical Blue Memento ink.

To make the card, I adhered the coloured image on to a white card from Envelope Solutions. I then positioned and popped up the die cut sentiment using foam tape.

As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Here is a close up photo of the image before I adhered it to the card:
