The snowman was stamped in Basic Gray ink onto scrap Basic White card. I added the face in Basic Gray and the buttons were stamped in Orchid Oasis ink. Also, on scrap Basic White I stamped the hat in Orchid Oasis ink. The snowman and hat were then die cut using the Snowman Dies.

Using the same dies I cut a tree from scrap Shaded Spruce and twiggy arms from scrap Soft Suede card. I added Dimensionals to the back of the snowman positioning them to secure the twiggy arms and hat. The snowman was then added to the stamped panel.

I used the same size die, placed it onto the 4 card fronts, drew around the inside to help me position the stamping.

The largest holly leaf was stamped over-lapping the pencil circle, the detailed image in Evening Evergreen and the infill image in Soft Succulent. The smaller holly leaf was then stamped in Shaded Spruce with the infill in Mint Macaron ink.
