Hi Everyone, it's time for June's CAS Christmas Card Challenge. Hideko wants us to pull out our Snowman stamps and join in the fun.
Welcome Steph of My Paper Corner as Guest Designer for this month and don't forget to say hi to the Design Team.
Here is my card for the challenge, I used an old Sugar Nellie stamp with the Snowman family caroling. Unfortunately they no longer make these stamp 😒
I stamped the image in Versafine Clair and watercoloured the image. Once I was happy with the watercolouring I re-stamped the images with Versafine Clair and this time heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.
I used Flower soft on the hat and around the base of the Snow Family for a little texture

What a wonderful older stamp - love that family out carolling. Great watercolouring and great use of the Flower Soft for the snow.
Adorable image and so sorry to see they are out of business. You colored that beautifully. About Follow it- do we have to resubscribe? Often times when I do I get double notifications or at least I have in the past.

Cool snow-family. Beautiful watercolouring. Great finish touch with the flower soft. I don’t think I’ve ever used flower soft before.
What a happy snowman family card, Christine! The carrot noses and the kids' scarf and hats vibrantly pop against the neutral colors. The flower soft is perfect for the snow, and the navy blue card base puts the focal image in the spotlight. Great effect!
