Today I have a fun, lighthearted Christmas card featuring a pair of happy snowmen riding a Christmas train. The red backdrop is set off with white snowflakes and the puffy snow & clouds are highlighted with sparkly glitter.
It’s my turn to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC974) & we are visiting Discount Mags & their Pinterest Board. I chose THIS magazine cover for my inspiration.
After die cutting the red background, I used a large blending brush to add more red ink to it, making it a little darker on the left side & a richer red on the right. The snowflakes were stamped w/ white ink & I used a white gel pen to add the dots. The snowmen were colored & die cut w/ their matching dies. I also die cut a large green tree & several white cloud banks. Only the largest car of the train set was used & I added the snow on top by die cutting the snow from the Winter Village set & attaching it on top. The train & tree were added between 2 cloud banks & a third was added across the top w/ the greeting stamped on it. A little stickles was added on top of the snow for sparkle.
The snowmen & train cars were popped up just a bit. Here are the Copics I used:
