I started this card backwards, meaning I assembled it before I even printed my images. That way I had an idea of how large my images could be. Then I sized them and printed them onto Cryogen paper with my inkjet printer. Copics used:
Santa - E000, E00, R20
Eyes - B12
Suit - R37
Gloves - YG63
Boots & Belt - C5Belt Buckle - YR23
Sack - E41
I added Sparkly Fluff to the hat and suit trim.
Santa's House - E42, YG63, R37
Gumdrop doorway - RV32, Y21, YG41, BG32
Candy canes - R37
Steps & Mailbox - E41, E42
Trees - G40
Sky - BG11 and blender pen
I added Frosted Lace Stickles to the edges of the snow. Click on the close-up for a better look, you can also see the sparkle from the Cryogen paper.
Once again, the DP is from the Merrymint collection by American Crafts. I am going to be sad when this is all gone. Finished size is 6" square.
