The snowman pieces were die cut from X-Press It paper and black cardstock. Colouring/shading on the white pieces were done with Copic Sketch markers then assembled him together when done.
Copic markers used:
teal scarf - BG11/13/45/49
white carrot - N0/1/2/3
moon/snow - C00/0/1/2/3
For the background, trimmed Bristol paper to A2 size and masked off the sides with 1" wide painter's tape. A moon mask, die cut from masking paper with a Circle Infinity die, was then adhered to the panel before ink blending Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire distress inks (DI) for the night sky. Removed the moon mask and added crater texture/details on the moon with Copic Sketch markers C00/1/2/3
The Santa sleigh image and sentiment (both retired) were stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with clear glitter embossing powder for some sparkle. Glued the snowman to the scene and with the side masks still in place, splattered the scene with diluted white gouache paint for a snowy effect. The snowman gets splattered too because snow falls everywhere. 😉 Trimmed the sentiment to a strip then mounted the panel onto a white card base to finish.

I love how you've colored the snowman's scarf! The dimension is amazing and so is the moon and night sky! I think you have another winner her, Trina!

You always think of the cleverest way to use your stamps and dies, Trina - the 'wow' expression on your snowman when he sees Santa flying by in his sleigh is so fun - love the blue sky strip just in the center and the glow of the moon! Thanks for joining in my challenge this month at CAS Christmas: Santa's sleigh! Julia xx
