Warm Hugs from Chilly Willy


It's time for a new challenge with us on the

As always, the challenge is Anything Goes.

~~~*~~~*~~~

The sponsor for this challenge is:


Oddball Art Co.

Today I have used the Chilly Willy digital stamp from Oddball Art Co., our generous sponsor for this challenge, to make a pair of fun shaker Christmas cards.



I printed the Chilly Willy image, heat set, fussy cut then coloured with Copic markers, finishing off the edges with a Memento Tuxedo Black dual tip marker.  I printed the front panels with the sentiment, heat set then cut the "melted snow" (cloud) shaped windows with my Silhouette Cameo, then manually trimmed the image panels down to size.  I coloured the sentiments with Copic markers.  Partially overlapping the pink and orange created an even more vibrant orange.  I adhered a panel of acetate to the melted snow windows, adhered foam tape around the windows and over the back of the front panels.  I filled the windows with assorted white beads and sequins then adhered the 7" x 5" card bases.  Lucky last came the fussy cut Chilly Willy images and snowflake sequins, which I adhered in place using liquid adhesive.
It's funny ... and frustrating ... how an idea sticks in your mind.  I was determined to create a melting snowman, an Olaf enjoying warm hugs and summer without his personal flurry.

The first card has the front panel covering the 7" x 5" card base.



The image panel on the second card is smaller
and pops out from the 7" x 5" card base.
