First I stamped Snowman Jack and coloured with Copic Markers, I also stamped another head, coloured and cut out his Hat, I also stamped him again on snowflake patterned paper and cut out the scarf to paper piece later.

I stamped the Speckle Background around the image using Versamark Ink and heat embossed using Snowflake Tinsel embossing powder.

After Fixing all the pieces together I then attached the Hat & Scarf pieces with Pinflair Glue Gel. I Cosmic Twinkles Glitter Glue as highlights to the snow at the base of the Snowman xx
