Pretty straight forward. The backgrounds were in my stash and I thought there was no better time to use them. They are Washi tape (Rainbow with Splatters and Nebula) adhered to thick white cardstock and covered with clear gesso. White splatters were added to them. The snowmen images (Snow Fun and Snowman Friends) were stamped with black alcohol friendly ink on scraps of alcohol friendly cardstock, coloured with Copics then die cut out with the matching dies. The sentiments (Fa La La and Magical) are die cut from scraps of white and black cardstock. Well, except for the magical black shadow which was fussy cut. Anyway, here they are individually.
Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy your Christmas,

Trina, I'm going to have to hunt out more Washi tape, what a great way to make a bunch o cards :)
what a beautiful set of cards. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday for our three week challenge
That Washi tape is awesome, Trina! I love how well it works for the backgrounds and the delightful snow people!
WOW!! I have never thought that those amazing backgrounds were washi tape!! Awww... Gessoing and splattering have surely added a fab look, and I'm just in LOVE with those cute snowmen!! Such amazing cards!
Happy Boxing Day!
What a magical selection of cards! I bet they loved them. Thanks for playing at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x
Fabulous collection of cards. Those little snowmen are so cut and I love the backgrounds xx
What a fabulous set of cards Trina! I love that they're similar but different if that makes sense - for a group of family members! Amazing colouring as always too.

Fantastic set of Christmas cards. I bet your in-laws loved theirs. Love your sweet characters with those amazing backgrounds. I don't have clear gesso, but need to get some and give it a try. Great work as always Trina. xx
Fabulous cards and super cute and made in the nick of time x. I bet they loved them? I hope Christmas went well and you made lovely memories? Sending love and hugs x. Thank you for all your inspiration in 2019, which I have loved! x.
All five cards are sooo adorable, Trina! I’m sure your in-laws loved them. Covering wide washi tape with clear gesso is such an interesting idea. I’d love to try the technique with my wide washi tape. Your fussy-cut magical shadows are amazing. I'd have thought you used a shadow die if I hadn't read your post!!
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
