Cold and Frosty

I've another Christmas card to share with you today, this time using the Winter scene-it stamps from Hobbyart:

6 x 6 card blank
Images stamped onto watercolour card in Versafine ink and coloured with Aquacrayons.  Pinflair Snow dust added for texture.  Embossed around the edges using Vanilla ice embossing powder.
Spellbinders Labels 27 die used to create mat.
Backing papers are all from Swalk Winter Cheer cd-rom, printed onto satin printer papers.  I inked around the edges using Faded Jeans distress ink, my splodgeaway mat and my ink blending tool.
Embossed panel made from Centura Card, embossed with an embossing folder that came with a magazine, and inked using Faded Jeans distress ink.
The sentiment is a peel off and the silver snowflakes are die-cut using a Cheery Lynn die.
