July CAS Christmas Challenge

Hi everyone.  July's CAS Christmas Challenge is Snowman, hosted by Linda.  I used this sweet snowman and penguin image from Unity (Love to My Heart), a gift from a dear friend. :)

I stamped in black ink onto mixed media paper and heat embossed in clear before adding touches of watercolouring with distress inks.  A super fun and quick card to make!  The sentiment (Inside Greetings - Holiday from Sunny Studio) is also stamped in black and heat embossed in clear to finish the card. :)

What a cute snowman, Loll, all snuggled up to his nose in his scarf and holding his heart balloon! The waving penguin cracks me up! Julia xx

What a cute pair they are! This is a sweet card, Loll. Love the polka dot scarf on the snowman and that little wave from the tiny penguin!
