Stacked Snowmen

Hi all! Vladka is here today!

New Christmas SC dies are irresistible, I love them. It is such fun to play with them. This time I took 2 new dies: Stacked Snowmen and Snow. This Snowmen are super adorable. 
All I needed was something for my background. So, I grab my Tumbled Glass Distress Ink, put it some on my craft sheet and added some water. Here you have two possibilities: to press watercolor paper into the wet ink or to use sheet of plastic acetate, gentle press it into the wet ink and carried it to water color paper. I hope this make sense :) This is how I did it, because this way I have more control by color transmission! 
Some parts of snowmen were colored with copics and then I also took Snow expression and cut out the snowman from it and replaced it with three cut snowmen. You just need to cut out the snow hill and glue everything together and card is finished. 
Have fun! 

Card Supplies I used:
CottageCutz dies: Stacked Snowmen and Snow 
Card stock: watercolor and white
Distress Ink: Tumbled Glass
Other: scissors, paper trimmer, scor-buddy, glue tape, plastic acetate, craft sheet
