Hello Friends and Happy Saturday! I hope everyone is safe and warm, considering the Midwest and North Eastern United States are in a deep freeze! I have a quick share today featuring adorable snow friends, and considering the weather in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere, I thought this card was appropriate for today.
The images are the Festive Penguin and Snowman from Amanda Jayne Designs. Here's a side note: Amanda Jayne Designs will stop selling on the 31st of January, so now is the time to get her images before she retires.
The images have been colored using Copic Alcohol Markers, and the focal panel has been cut using a fancy edged circle die from Spellbinders. The patterned papers are from a winter 6x6 paper pad from Ink 'n Splatter and the sentiment is from a Pink and Main Set.
I've popped the focal panel and sentiment on foam pads and before mounting the focal panel, I've splattered it using Dr. Ph. Martin's Pen White ink to replicate snowfall.
That's all from me today. I hope everyone that's affected by the winter storm stays safe and warm, keep hot beverages on standby.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
Donna

The penguin and snowman look absolutely charming together, and your Copic coloring gives them so much personality. The fancy edged circle frames them beautifully, and the snowy splatter adds the perfect wintry touch. The patterned papers pull everything together in such a warm, seasonal way. A delightful card for a deep-freeze kind of day.
