Christmas Flashback-Year 3

Year 2 (2000) is not to be found apparently as I've checked boxes of cards & old computer files too! I can tell you what I did though. I used the Celebrate the Season set and embossed the large Celebrate the Season in gold on Forrest Foliage CS, and used Versamark to add branches around it. A simple gold organdy knot bow was added.

Year 3 (2001) I may have been insane!!! I do still love the card though, but it was lots of work!

The card base is Not Quite Navy, the layer under the vellum is Going Grey and is stamped on the edge with large snowflakes & swirls in Not Quite Navy. The vellum has been rolled with white ink using the Snowflake wheel. Then I embossed Frosty & the Happy Holidays onto the vellum. And Frosty was colored with markers to get the different color effects! Lastly the white organdy bow ties the vellum to the Going Grey layer.

I must admit that I traded Frosty not to long after completing these cards! I just couldn't bring myself to use him again! But he is such a happy snoman isn't he??? He's on the current retirement list. If you don't own him-get him NOW!!!
