Christmas Sketch

The sketch from The CLASSroom for the WCMD 2012 Challenge 3 really got my attention:  http://ellenhutson.typepad.com/the_classroom_new/2012/10/wcmd-challenge-sketch-by-sharon-harnist.html

 This is also a fit for the Crafty Friends Challenge to use dry embossing:  http://craftyfriendschallenges.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/?p=308
 
I know this is a loose interpretation of the sketch, but I had to flip it so that the snowman would fit.  The snowman was colored with Touch Twin Markers.  The background was embossed with a Sizzix snowflake folder, then decided I wanted some shimmer, rubbed the background with Versamark and sprinkled some Kaleidoscope ep by Stampendous (which is very shimmery) and then heat embossed.  The pennants and border are Spellbinders dies.  Added brads and decided that the pennants needed something, so stamped and embossed in white the little snowflakes from Gina K's set Holiday Hospitality.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
