. . . a little bit different!
S is for Smashing Snowman, Same-but-a-little-bit-different
How cute is this snowman smashing his way through the ice?I love the thin pop of colour that matches the shades in the image.
No, you're not experiencing double-vision, you have seen him before.I shared a pair of CAS cards using him HERE
and a matted card HERE
and I just had to make another one, using my favourite 1/16"matting width, I do enjoy the delicate pop of colour it gives.This cute “Smash Snowman” image is from Day 13 of the Christmas Craft Countdown event on the Craft With Sarah blog. There was a group of “smash” images shared as part of this project. The images were originally designed for sublimation printing on vinyl for ironing on t-shirts, canvas, fabric etc. These PNG format images also work well with cardstock and I think they make for fun card designs.
I opened the Smash Snowman image in Silhouette Studio along with the "Warm Winter Wishes" digital sentiment from the Seasonal Window digital stamp set by Beccy’s Place. It was like they were made for each other, as the font used for "winter" in the sentiment curved up perfectly to align with the bottom of the image ... I sure planned that well didn't I? I sized the image and sentiment to fit on a 4 5/8" square panel and printed it on 300gsm smooth white cardstock, trimmed to size, matted on rich Merlot cardstock, trimmed to delicate 1/16" border with a Perfect Layers Ruler then adhered to a 5 1/2" square top folding card base.
SMASHING!
HERE is the CAS card made using this same image-sentiment combo.
and HERE is the card with the wider 1/8" matting layer.
It's impossible to choose a favourite, they're all so cute!
