Snowman Season & more

Hello and welcome to my little haven, hope you're having a good day!

This card is for one of my Grand Daughters who is very girlie.

All measurements are in centimetres
(cs) = card stock, (r) = retired

Card stock: 3 pieces of Whisper White 21 x 14.5 (card base) scored at 10.5, 10 x 14 (first mat), 8 x 2 (sentiment), Seaside Spray 7 x 3.5 (globe base)
Colours:  Pool Party, Seaside Spray, Smoky Slate, VersaMark
Stampin' Blends: Balmy Blue, Gray Granite, Pumpkin Pie

• Start with the first mat and die cut the dome leaving about 1.5 cm from each side.
• Place the mat on the base card and trace the dome shape onto the card base using a light pencil.
• Now emboss the mat with the the brick & mortar folder then add the ribbon and lay to one side for now.
• Stamp the snowman in memento ink, and the globe using 2nd generation stamping in smoky slate. Then erase the pencil marks.
• Colour the snowman using the stampin' blends. Then sponge lightly with pool party round the globe edges.
• Stamp the globe base pattern on the seaside spray (cs) in versamark and cover it with the silver embossing powder then heat set it.
• Stamp the sentiment in veramark & seaside spray then cover it with clear embossing powder and heat set it. Die cut this with the label from the petals & more dies.
• Remove the backing from the top side of the dome and adhere to the back of the first layer and press down so it is firmly secured.
• Now lay some snowflake sequins and a little stampin' glitter on top of the snow man, remove the second backing from the back of the dome, add some liquid glue around the rest of the first mat and then adhere down onto the card base without moving the card base so the sequins and glitter stay inside the dome area. Once in place secure dome firmly.
• Using liquid glue adhere the globe base to the card, then using dimensional pads add  the sentiment to the bottom.

Will be back again soon with more cards!
