Today I have used the Snowing Cupcakes digital stamp from Imagine That Digistamp,
one of our generous sponsors for this challenge, to make fun Christmas card.
This is the second card I have made using this fun image.
You can read all about my first card HERE or by clicking on the image below.


~~~*~~~*~~~



I opened the image in Silhouette Studio and decided to make a round easel card.  I started by drawing a circle, duplicated it a couple of times, aligned two, welded them together so that I had a round card base and a round panel to go on the top.  Next I sized the cute snowman image panel to fit on the front panel, along with several matting layers.  I duplicated the largest matting layer so that I had a panel to mat the inside of the card.  I sized the sentiment, making it large to wedge the card open.
I printed the image panel on X-Press It blending card, heat set, cut with the Cameo then coloured with Copic markers.  The main difference with this card is that instead of colouring the snowman, I coloured the background.  This as a new-to-me style and I think it makes the snowman pop.
I cut the card base an matting panels with the Cameo.  I printed the sentiment, cut manually then added a matting layer, trimming to 1/16" with my Perfect Layers ruler.  I scored the top of the card base along the join and at 2 1/12" to make the top and easel folds.  I adhered the image panel and matting layers to the front panel then added the orange mini pom pom trim.  I adhered the front panel to the bottom half of the front of the card base (for the easel fold).  I trimmed off the top 1/8" of the matting panel for the inside of the card then adhered it in place.  The sentiment panel was popped in place with foam squares, giving a ledge for the front panel to tuck behind when the card is open.

The mini white pom poms add a touch of fun dimension.



The image is so bright and cheery and had great dimension when open.

   

Although this is a fancy fold card, it goes flat for mailing
and it can also be displayed as a traditional top folding card too.
