Snowmen on greeting cards are typically surrounded by snow or snowflakes. For inexplicable reasons, I decided to take a different approach. I created a poinsettia-themed Xmas card with a mini snowman at the centre… An unexpected twist to the traditional winter scene.
I also added an embossed neutral background panel. To reduce the visual effect of the cardstock colour, I passed a white ink pad over the raised areas.
Featuring gorgeous Simon Says Supplies!
I hope you like the cards in this post.
